About this project
Five years in the making, the task was to catalogue and scan
over 150,000 engineering drawings preserved on microfilm
along with some 70,000 cross references. The microfilms are
photographs of the original paper/film drawings and were
prepared by the Product Engineering Department during the
1960s and 1970s. This remarkable collection covers all
BMC/Leyland passenger cars and some commercial vehicles
produced at the Zetland plant in Sydney.

The complete set of Engineering drawings for all BMC cars
produced in Australia has now been digitised and catalogued.
For legal reasons, it is not possible to provide a copy of
dimensioned engineering drawings to the general public.
However, we can consult the drawings and provide you with
the information you require and provide you with a fair-use
portion of a drawing.
The search facility above allows you to determine if a drawing
exists for the item you are interested in. Searching for a
drawing is not always straight-forward. Some parts are on
multiple drawings, some parts are on a drawing that has a
different drawing number to the part number, and many
assembly drawings do not correspond to any part number from
a parts book. If you cannot locate the drawing using the search
facility, we can research the part for you.
Registered uses can view a low resolution version of the
drawing in order to facilitate a selection. Once a selection is
made, the list can be forwarded by email and an estimate of
the cost of preparing the information can be obtained.
Expected costs depend on the nature of the drawing, e.g. if the
information is commercially sensitive. Straight forward issues,
expect a charge of about $20. Complicated issues, allow about
one hour at $80 minimum.
