car blueprints

what is the best way to get perfect blue prints that allign in all views. For instance when a plane allings on all 4 views how do u guys cut them up to maek them close as possible ive tried many ways but no luck. Does anyone have any ideas on how to get acccurate bps well not accurate but equally alligned bps.

it depends on the the blueprints the only real perfectly matching 100% prints ive had was the FC Rx-7 i done

i always cut them right to the last line then use that amoubnt of pixels on the plane size in max and copy it over

What seems to work for me is, I would take the blueprints of the view points and open it up in photoshop and use guides to mark of the edges and crop them and make 4 individual files. From there I import them to 3d max and align them that was. So far it hasn't failed me.

Nearly none of the blueprints matches 100%, try to live with it.
