    Has anyone heard of HONDO (not sure if spelling is correct) repo 1932 Ford fenders? Maybe from the 70'S?

    Someone had a pair of 32 fenders stamped out at Douglas Aircraft in the late 60s if I am correct. I worked for Douglas in flight test from 1989 to 1994 and an old timer told me that someone had used a press in bldg 84, I believe to stamp them out. I think Street Rodder did article about it many years ago.

    Yes, it was Bill Honda. I have a set on my '32 3W. Excellent product and more precise than the ones currently available.
