I've got my hand drawn sketches I did when making my tailgate. I just haven't redrawn them on CAD.

Grant, did you get a copy of his drawings? The last few posts on that thread from 7 years ago was no one had heard back from him.

I did buy a copy. He was only selling them hard copy, on 11x17 paper. I asked if he would consider selling them as .dwg files so I could get them printed on larger paper if giving them to a production shop. He was not interested in electronic distribution as it would be so easy for people to make "just one copy for a reliable friend" and pretty soon he has lost control of his document. He was concerned enough about it that he has registered a copyright on the drawings. If you are looking for contact information for Ted I can try to find what I used.

I have to say that I understand and mainly agree with him. I have the same issue when it comes to the reproduction manuals. There is considerable effort and time involved in scanning a 300 page manual so I would like some return on the effort and also the time and money spent acquiring the manuals.
