i just need to know how to draw that single bit that i circled in the picture? Its like two circles and a line between them.

Im not sure if there are meant to be specific angles and lengths for the lines.But it appears to be just a matter of drawing lines at different angles(make sure ortho is turned off).Use the chamfer command where u need a curve between the two lines at the bottom left of it..

Is this a college project.?What are u studying?

i dont think that specific line has an angle as such. Im going to try that though. Thats one of the parts i cant figure out, the other is the windshield, and other windows dimensions(lengths).

I just started using Cad last week, but i am struggling, this specific thing i have to draw is like a learning process to the drawing i will be doing in a test next week. Im doing Construction Management btw.

thanks by the way

i cant install autocad on mine (damn 2000 version shows how long since I did that) so I can't really help, sorry.

Where are you from.?I dunno if thats obvious or not.

Its strange to be drawing a car as part of a construction management project.We always draw buildings and construction related stuff as part of our projects.
