I've got the files archived on a CD somewhere. I'll try to dig them out when I get home from work tonight and repost.

OK, Here they are:
TOP AND SIDE VIEW 350
http://home.comcast.net/~37215/350cad.dwg
350 PERSPECTIVE RIGHT FRONT
http://home.comcast.net/~37215/350rtfrt.dwg
Bonus:
FRONT VIEW OF MY AWESOME '77 Blue Beast
http://home.comcast.net/~37215/280frt.dwg
RIGHT SIDE OF MY AWESOME '77 Blue Beast
http://home.comcast.net/~37215/280rt.dwg
Please don't rag on me about the quality or the fact that they're drawn in 'top view' as others have in the past (the reason I deleted them before). I'm an architect, not a CAD expert. Besides, they're free.
ALSO, making your own is VERY easy. Copy a digital photo of your favorite Z and paste into AutoCAD (or Microstation, etc.) Then trace it. That's how I did these.
Enjoy.

Architect here too. Thanks for the blocks. Do you have the .dxf files too. We have recently started a 3-d program (for all the archinerds out there it is Revitt and it is awesome!!) and would like to put it in some renderings. Does anyone have these. I don't really have the time to model it myself. Thanks

I am a civil engineer and I use cad extensively, mostly for grading plans and details. You architects need to adjust your damn scales!

I'm the man that turns the paper into reality....I am a Project Manager for a construction company....I majored in both Civil Engineering & Construction Management in school.
It's interesting to see how many Z owners have technical degrees.

well man, I have B. Architecture, B. Property construction and B. Planning and design as my technical degree. I will have my own development firm very soon (the man who manage the money to paid to amf813 to turns paper into reality). Working as architect just not quite enough to afford both Zed and GTR.....

Reading back through the thread, you'll see that the correctly scaled versions were posted previously. The archived files I just posted were the originals. Sorry for any inconvenience.
Smiley or not, your post just goes to show how no good deed goes unpunished and that was the exact reason I deleted the original blocks several months ago.
I dropped the photos in at the scale they were, based on the resolution of the photo, then traced them. It would take about 2 minutes to access the Nissan site for the dimensional specs, measure the CAD block, punch the conversion into a calculator, then scale it.
Instead you used that 2 minutes to complain about my gift to the site. Go figure.
Maybe reposting them was a mistake.
BTW, there is no way to accurately scale the 350 perspective block.

Naw man, you mistook my jest. I was not referring to the scale on the blocks (people who know autocad can easily scale a block by relative scaling), but how to architects scale things in general (1/4" = 1 ft....wtf? gimme 1" = 50 ft any day!).
