Hi heads. I have a favor to ask of you. I am in search of a modified race car template. I have a car to letter next week and i kinda wanted to lay the car out on top of the template. I have the mr clipart car n truck collection 2000 but there's not a modified on it. I had one on disk that i got off the net somewhere, but it is nowhere to be found! I was just wondering if anyone out there had one they could lend me? Thanks for your time.
Ps. I'd like to wish all of you a SUCCESSFUL! New Year. Thanks for your great help! Ryan Ursta

Ryan, here's a case where you need to make up your own template specific to the car you are lettering. The term modified is quite generic, much like asking for a template of a car. Are you talking about an IMCA/Wissota/UMP type modified, a NE pavement "tar car", a D.I.R.T. type of modified, Texas has winged modifieds and in some places modifieds are based on Camaros. All that aside lets say your talking about a D.I.R.T type car, the differences in body types just in that series alone will get you in trouble. Design some nice graphics using a template only to find out the actual car has totally different shaped sail panels will ruin your day. Get a picture of the car, scan it, draw over the image. There are few curves on these things, drawing one in Corel or some other program should be a snap.

Thanks for the info. Usually I do take a pic of the car, but in this case the body panels arrent on the car yet so i just needed a general dirt track modified template which i recieved from Joe Pribish. Thanks again Joe!
