auto modification dimensional measurement tool

if the link works, you'll be looking at a 'bridge fiducial', used in design/styling studios. It's a tool which provides a means to 'define', locate, or quantify any part of the exterior of an automobile in 3-dimensional space.
In 'boat-tailing' a production vehicle, the bridge fiducial would be used to properly define the existing architecture, and allow a means to 'project' any surface, line, curve, panel intersection, etc., along its extrapolation rearwards to create a perfectly-integrated elongation of the bodyhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automo...rusdesign2.jpg
