Body Reproduction (was Body Dies, People Mag.. etc.)



Just as a side note i guess, There is a way to reproduce any parts 
needed, just so long as you have one of the original parts. Cad/Cam 
laser scanning. This involves just mounting the part on to a jig, 
then haveing a laser scanner go over the piece. Then on the machine, 
you can simply input a reference dimension, and the computer does the 
rest. This will allow you to accurately re machine any part.

This was in fact done to an original Shelby Cobra a few years ago by 
a Swedish company, who then tweaked a few numbers to generate a 
tighter fit, better performance, etc.. The first reproduction of the 
vehicle was actually driven by Carroll Shelby from my recollection 
who was quite impressed.


There is hope after all..
