You might try looking at web sites for companies that make models - the model instructions might provide the detail you need with the 'decal placement' page.

Alternatively, if you visit your local auto-supply shop, the people who work there should know where you can get a detailed maintennance manual for the car... which would include overly detailed diagrams of every component of the vehicle. This is not what would come with the car, but rather a THICK book that a mechanic would actually reference if they needed to know what parts to take out in what order so they can replace the clutch etc... Possibly not cheap.

Or you can just buy a 57 chevy and get a 3D laser scan of it, but I think this is beyond the budgets of any normal human being :)

Good luck,

P.S.: I am rather interested in how you did the tread - more tutorials are always welcome.
