    57 Chevy

    I have been searching for a good vector of a 57 Chevy for some dash plaques I am doing. The customer wants as much detail as possible on the car i.e. front emblem correct back fins etc. I found one that has all of that but I cannot trace it to make a good vector image, I lose detail when tracing. Can anyone point me in a direction that may have what I am looking for.

    You lasering or engraving?

    I'll assume engraving, because you can laser black & white art just fine without vectoring it--

    I am lasering it but the rest of the artwork is a vector file and I need crisp lasering lines. When I trace the original image I lose some of the detail to the image that they specifically want.
