    Gotcha. Do you recall what gauge sheetmetal you used? The doors on my '51 F1 were warped by a sandblaster and re-skinning seems to be the best way to repair.

    I use 18 gauge on everything. It may be a little harder to shape but it's what I like.

  10. Clark,

    I like the way you kept a body line even though the fenders are one piece now.
    Nice touch... I think I may do that to my 50, if its ok with you?
