Hi , does anyone knows where I can find the geometry and flow domain of an ahmed body and SAE notchback reference vehicle correlated with wind tunnel data?

I have this SAE paper: On the use of reference models in automotive aerodynamics.

The paper reviews the design characteristics and use of several key reference models (Ahmed, Rover, NRSCC/SAE, MIRA, SAE/Pininfarina and many others). It contais the geometry but does not contain wind tunnel data...

If you´re able to find it on the web, email me I send you the pdf file.
