A while back, I began wondering how antique car collectors a hundred years from now would restore a "simple" car like a 2013 Ford Fiesta. They may look simple, but there are thousands upon thousands of parts. It's not exactly feasible in today's average garage.

But what if you could download 3D libraries containing printing commands for every part in a Ford Fiesta, or a Ford Model A? Just find your part and print it. The repro part manufactures would sell libraries instead of physical parts. Download a gas tank library and print.
