Photo request, bottom of 360

Post by jtbo » 28 Feb 2012 02:49 am

I could use photo(s) from bottom of 360, preferably taken straightly center of car bottom, so one would need car placed on side, maybe in car body rack if one is making major work on car bottom, even several photos taken side by side is ok as often in garage it is difficult to take photos so that whole car would fit into photo, if angle is relatively same I can work quite well from that too.

Reason why I need such photos is to make 3d model from bottom of the car and no matter what I try I can't get enough good photos from mine, and even I can measure and do by measures it is quite difficult to get appearance right that way, at least for me.

So if anyone can take such pics or knows where to find some clear pics, please share it, thx :D

Hi Jani.
There is a thread in the photo com section called Rust in piece by trabbitom.
There is a picture of an upended 360 about halfway down the page,
Cheers Mark.

Well remembered, Mark. That'd be this one:

AFAIK 340s and 360s had the same floorpan. You can see the pre-drilled holes for vario mountings even on 360 floorpans.

Cheers

Thx, that should do it perfectly, don't know how many attempts I need to get it right, but will do as many as needed.

Pic helps also as I have great difficulties getting down or getting up now, making model is good as I can do it without moving around so no pains :D

My 360 shell is currently on a roll over jog/spit, so may also be able to offer some useful images? Worth a shot if you're stuck mate, check my WIP thread.

Pic that is similar to one posted in this thread, but from front might be helpful as well as pic that is taken from side as those would give bit better image of angles, but no need to get troubled as I can figure most of those from my car too, only if one happen to have camera in garage and happens to remember this stuff, any contribution is appreciated :)

Ah, with search I did found out that I have actually answered similar question at 2009, no any memory trace at all from that either, my memory is really horrible these days.
