Default Need dimensions for Dodge

Sounds silly, maybe, but I want to make the side of an omni in cardboard. I need someone to actually go out and measure their car for me. Not all dimensions, just a handfull. I will use a picture to complete them. I will ask for the specific ones I need if I get any responses. Thanks

Then I'm confused, what dimensions do you need? Like the length from the front to the door, the length of the door, then theend of the door to the back?

And cause I'm curious... can I ask why you want to make a cardboard side of an Omni?

I haven't seen one in years... but maybe I can come up with what you need. Better yet, hopefully another member has the car at home... LOL!

It was a 1989 Omni that I gave away this year. I am going to have a retirement party for it. I will have Omni cookies and Omni cake. The cardboard car is just another prop.</P>


</P>


The dims I need are:</P>


1. looking from side of car, center of wheel to center of wheel</P>


2. from the ground to the top of the window</P>


3. from the ground to the bottom of the door</P>


4. how wide is the bumper</P>


5. outside tire diameter</P>

What size wheels did it come with originally? 14 inch...? So that means the Omni is about 7 inches off the ground...

I called my friend who had one in his garage (didn't run) but he scraped it and that was going to be my model. Sorry... thought I could help.

I dare say a 14" wheel doesn't make a 14"tire, does it?
