Answered: Manta drawing needed

Does somebody have a drawing of a Manta, that shows an exact front (and/or rear view) and side view? Maybe out of a book or an old brochure? It's fine if it has some other stuff in it (dimensions, etc), I just need the basic outline in as high of a resolution as possible. I could take pictures myself, but that would always have a perspective to it, that's why I prefer an original drawing.

Dieter.
Please check your e-mail.
Those attachments are from a brochure but I'm not sure if they were
originally photos or art work. Hope they help.
Too big to post here.

Before this results in something that's all your fault, what are you up to Dieter?

So I can't even ask for some pics to hang in my basement (next to the buttnaked calendar hotties) without somebody getting alert?
I must have built quite a reputation here!!!
Trust me, there is nothing to talk about.
Yet.

Nope, from Germany's paint manufacturer "Prosol". Like mentioned, the girls are butt naked, still to be found anywhere in Germany (speaking about the calenders here).

Of course large scale blue prints were the icing on the cake for what I wanna do! Black and white would be OK, to save file size.
