Aeroashfaq, do you have the 3 images in a DWG file ?
Then you could EXTRUDE some REGIONS.
If not, try to download the free soft ANYDWG to convert a good image file into a DWG.
With that 2D views you could try and work some 3D volumes.
 
To do 3D work with AutoCAD you have to create closed areas ( with REGION for example ) and :
EXTRUDE or REVOLUTION them, then UNION or SUBTRACT them etc...
Try to find some documentation about 3D for you not being stoped right in the beginning.
Tell us about your expereiences, tests, upload your drawings so that we can critizise them etc... 
 
I have a truck in 3D and I will upload it in the Cad Blocks library right here in the site.
 
GANES, YOU CAN POST A "NEW TOPIC" ONLY FOR YOU, SEE IMAGE HERE :

aero: You have a lot of work ahead of you trying to do that in plain AutoCAD not too mention that although you have many of the overall dimensions you do not have detailed/full dimensions on many aspects of the truck.  You could "rough" it out by drawing the profiles of all three views then extruding them followed by using the Interfere command to see where they overlap.  That is still going to be a lot of work.

I know of one possible source for 2D views (in DWG file format) of many trucks which include top, front, rear and side views. 

Question: Are you going to attempt this as a 3D solid or use surfaces?

Ganes: It is considered impolite to hijack a thread started by someone else just to ask for help with your own unrelated problem.  In the future start a new post.

Do you have detailed, dimensioned views of your machine or are they rough sketches?  The more information you already have down on paper the faster someone can work to create the machine in 3D.  If they have to stop every five to ten minutes to ask a question that increases the amount of time spent which will increase the price you have to pay.
