Zenith CH200 Serial #16

Trying to get a good drawing on AutoCAD to send to the metal shop for their CNC machine. Having a bit of difficulty reading copied plans. Are there any original CH200 plans available? When I got this plane it had been flown less than 4 hours and had a hard landing with a prop strike. The nose gear buckled the firewall. I believe the firewall bracing was built backwards. Not sure. I will have to consult an engineer for reading the hand-drawn plans.
