Free CAD block from the Cars, side view library (18 blocks), drawn 1:1.
About this block
1960s four-door sedan with chrome bumpers, drawn in side elevation. It measures 15' 7" long and 4' 10" high (4.75 m × 1.46 m), and it is drawn 1:1, full size, so it drops into any drawing set up in meters or in inches without rescaling.
From the Cars, side view library: 18 blocks drawn to one standard, each one available on its own.
In practice
Where it goes
Heritage streetscapes, historic-district elevations and period set drawings call for a car of the right decade, and the chrome bumpers and tall greenhouse of this sedan date it clearly. Place it in the foreground of a street elevation or a museum forecourt section; the side view also suits a classic-car showroom interior elevation where the cars stand nose to tail.
Clearances to leave
Length of 15 ft 7 in (475 cm) leaves 30 in (75 cm) in a 18 ft (550 cm) stall, but for a showroom allow 19 ft 8 in (600 cm) per car on the display line and 36 in (91 cm) of walkway alongside the doors. Its 58 in (146 cm) roof is taller than later sedans; a 7 ft (213 cm) garage soffit still clears it comfortably.
Pairs with
Park it beside the 1950s open roadster with wraparound windshield for a two-car classic display, with Person leaning on braced arm, one leg back resting against the fender. A checkered showroom floor drawn in the elevation base line sets the period.

Design notes
- Street trees are usually planted 19' 8" to 32' 10" apart, at least 3' 3" from the curb.
- A parallel parking bay is about 6' 7" to 8' 2" wide and 18' 1" to 19' 8" long.
- People and cars at real size give clients an instant sense of scale in a facade drawing.
