4 Feature Manager Design Tree: Highlight Right Sketch Toolbar: Click Sketch Standard Views: Click Normal To Sketch Tools: Sketch Relations: Click the Rectangle Draw a Rectangle and input the Dimensions of the car as shown. Add Relations, Click on the bottom of the Rectangle and make sure that the bottom line is the only one that is highlighted and then click midpoint. 4

5 Using the Sketch tools: Draw the following centerlines and circle. Add Dimensions as shown. Using the Sketch tools: Draw the following 3 Point Arc Make sure that you use the centerline as reference and try to sketch the form of the car. 5

6 Using the Sketch tools: Click on Sketch Trim and trim the unwanted lines, make sure that you ll have a continuous line all around the side profile of the car, as shown in blue Using the Sketch tools: Click on Sketch Trim and trim the unwanted lines, make sure that you ll have a continuous line all around the side profile of the car, as shown in blue. For the tires convert them to Construction Geometry, once done they will turn into centerlines. Click on Fillet and highlight the roof and front window of the car and apply the desired measurements. Do the same thing for the rear. 6

7 Now erase all the Geometric Construction Lines or the centerlines, you should be left with something like the one on the picture below. Leave the tire profile because you will be needing this as reference for future reference. Then click on the Rebuild button, the one that looks like a stop light.
