I use Autodesk Inventor at work and I've decided to draw as many Porsche 914 parts as possible. I've started for a simple reason, I can't find those plastic funnel looking pieces for the rain catch. I only have one, So I decided to model it and then have the fab shop make me two from aluminum. It took all of an hour or so, I've also modeled a Four spoke Fuch it's not to scale but looks good. I don't have one to scale too. Anyways, I'm looking for any and all tech., spec., or hand drawn detailed drawings to model. The goal is to create as many parts as possible for future use. I will of course share these with everyone if allowed to by contributing parties. I can also model parts for those who may need some done. I would just require some time as I'm doing it in my spare time. Can anyone help with this? Thanks!
P.S. Does anyone know if any of these parts are copyrighted and all that kind of crap. I don't need to be sued. I'm just putting together a library of parts. |

From what I've seen, PCNA could give a rats ass about 914s. Rock on, brutha!

you can model 100% of the vehicle with no worries of being sued....unless I guess you tried to sell the prints as being authentic or something goofy like that....
not sure you are going to find much documentation with dimensions...I'd think that the factory manual might have a few numbers, but not much...i've reverse enginered the front /4 rotors as well as the some parts for the 911 front brake assembly and then these parts that I used to make...   |

Cool. I guess I'll have to model the parts as I take them off the car or buy them. If anyone has parts and would like to contribute some dimensioned hand drawings, that would be appreciated. The more precise the better. Thanks for your support.

I need rear and side dims also. Here's the Four Spoke I did. It took about 2.5 hours. Not done with the center cap.  This piece is the reason I started this whole thing  |

Started messing around again...
 I stopped modeling due to the divorce and moving back to California but I'm going to get back on it soon. I still have my 2013 Inventor software and looking to get Solidworks. |

See my avatar (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
I'd look into Fusion360 by Autodesk, I like it a lot. At home I use the free version which besides 24 hours support and non-commercial use (okay for startups) there is no difference for the paid version. |
