CAD Models


Recommended Posts

I am sure someone else published a 3D model on here. I had a good search but couldn’t find much more useful than the above post. Unfortunately the old posts lost their links to the members so ‘Guest Anonymous’ is as good as it gets (and I don’t mean Daron).

Wow, that's one is an odd question. I had to respond. 

I think that your best bet is to do it yourself.  Depending if you live in a town with a movie industry, you should be able to rent a 3d modeller. In addition I am pretty sure you could find someone close that would help out in the car department.

If you want to make stuff for a BMW 2002, all you need to think of is NLA (No Longer Available) parts. This means only one thing, small batches of special high-quality parts with attention to finish.  

If you are looking for body models, spoiler kits and all that jazz... that is another thing altogether.  Because 2002's are getting so pricy, I expect the ones that are doing up a 02 to look like a race car(or be a race car), often have stuff custom fabricated to their taste or go with Jeff's stuff or others that have molded panels or body accessories. 

I could go on and on, but you get the idea.  If you want a specific answer to a particular question regarding if you should build something,  reach out through a private message.  

The nice thing about this forum is that the people aren't dicks.  I doubt anyone will steal your idea, as it is not in our best interest not to squash innovation in the 2002 community.

I had the same question, but only on a purely curiosity level before when I got a license for Solidworks through an industry contact.  I was so blown away by the power of the software and I was wondering if anyone had a SW model completed.  I love playing with Solidworks but I have a lot of other things to work on atm, I just can't devote the time to it like I would want to.  Please let me know if you find anything in terms of CAD files, Solidworks or not! :)

I've been thinking about a 3d scanner- really because I want to make glasses for my wife that fit her, but still think it would be fun.

I suspected as much but I didn't want to single you, folks, out.

Dudeland, it's less about spending money to get someone to do it for me but more about just designing custom parts to my taste. I have modeled in NX over the last couple of years and was curious to see if anyone else had thought about doing the same and had beaten me to going down that route. It's much easier to start from a baseline design than to start from scratch.

In the same vein, I've actually been spending a lot more time in Blender trying to get an animated opening title sequence for a youtube project I am working on.  Anybody else mess with Blender?   I highly recommend updating to the 2.8 beta if you haven't already done so...

A 3-d scanner would be awesome.  Do you already have a printer?

Someone please model and print a 2002 trunk emblem from a 74-76. I lost mine in its "restoration" my car returned with several missing bits. and no..I did not request a de-badging of my 2002?

 

I keep ordering it online, and then get "no longer in stock with no ETA." and a kindly refund. For everyone else, the 2002 emblem up to the 73 model year are still widely available. 

 

Cheers!

1975 Malaga. It is rusty but runs. Just like me.

The Roundel or the '2002?'

Already have a printer- Lulzbot Taz6.  There are lots of choices out there- I wanted a tool, not another project...  Finally got a computer set up just for modeling / printing- it's so nice.  Thanks @Tsingtao_1903

Man.  Started in Pro-E in school (I went to school late- too busy screwing around.)  SW is / was so much nicer.

 

Dave.

'76, totally stock. Completely.

Oh, I wouldn't be too sure about that- Ray can get vicious when you push his buttons!

    BMW Neue Klasse - a birth of a Sports Sedan

    Unveiling of the Neue Klasse Unveiled in 1961, BMW 1500 sedan was a revolutionary concept at the outset of the '60s. No tail fins or chrome fountains. Instead, what you got was understated and elegant, in a modern sense, exciting to drive as nearly any sports car, and yet still comfortable for four.   The elegant little sedan was an instant sensation. In the 1500, BMW not only found the long-term solution to its dire business straits but, more importantly, created an entirely new

    History of the BMW 2002 and the 02 Series

    In 1966, BMW was practically unknown in the US unless you were a touring motorcycle enthusiast or had seen an Isetta given away on a quiz show.  BMW’s sales in the US that year were just 1253 cars.  Then BMW 1600-2 came to America’s shores, tripling US sales to 4564 the following year, boosted by favorable articles in the Buff Books. Car and Driver called it “the best $2500 sedan anywhere.”  Road & Track’s road test was equally enthusiastic.  Then, BMW took a cue from American manufacturers,

    The BMW 2002 Production Run

    BMW 02 series are like the original Volkswagen Beetles in one way (besides both being German classic cars)—throughout their long production, they all essentially look alike—at least to the uninitiated:  small, boxy, rear-wheel drive, two-door sedan.  Aficionados know better.   Not only were there three other body styles—none, unfortunately, exported to the US—but there were some significant visual and mechanical changes over their eleven-year production run.   I’ve extracted t
