Hi guys.

This is my first post as I am new to the CAD thing. Basically what I am after is some sort of modelling software that will allow me to convert a series of 2D photos into a 3D model. I have been building a car body from fiberglass (four and a half years running!) and basically want to take some photos of it and feed in specific points of the dimensions into some sort of CAD software so I can make a 3D model of it so I can make some tweaks to the design and then have essentially a series of skeleton panels cnc machined to make a new buck for the fiberglass mould.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Dan.
