I needed a template of the rear pan on this 38 Chevrolet so that I can cut out the holes for the bumper brackets.  This would have been easier it the car was not painted and I had another car here to measure for the holes.  I have found someone who will let me use their car to mark the template.  

I covered the area with plastic shrink-wrap and laid up a couple of layers of cloth on the car.  When the piece is cured I can take it to the other car to trim it to the location of the hole.  The piece should lay on the other car and index itself.  I made one for each corner.
