Re: Design software

Not a silly question, that's what the software is for. I used SolidWorks to layout new bookshelves because 1) I have access to it and 2) it's parametric which makes it very easy to make changes. Take a look at http://www.gt40s.com/forum/gt40-tech...me-design.html where I mention free 2D software from SolidEdge. Should be good for designing a car too....
