403 blueprint??? Anyone?

Can anyone help me find blueprint drawings for the 403? Do they exist? I'm a student modelmaker with access to an actual 403 and I want to make a replica for my Degree. Just how outwardly identical is the 401 to the 403?

Susannah,
Visually the two models are identical. The only difference is that the 403 has badges attached - 403 on the bonnet each side and a Bristol emblem at the bottom of the panel in front of the door, and the round Bristol badges are red instead of orange

BCL have indeed kept and conserved all the blueprints, drawings and artworks for all models, though I am not sure if they are yet accessible . Do contact them
all the best, Stefan
