Looks tits...paint them up brother,find someone who shoots good base/clear,a high volume shop..you don't need an 'artist who specializes' you need a cat who shoots paint 8 hours a day.I try to get to the prep and paint guys and juice them a few bucks on the side,goes along way.

I have wondered for many years where the term "repop" came from. I have always referred to reproduction parts as "repro".

by RumblerIs it correct to assume that Henry did not polish the back sides of panels such as fenders and running board splash shields? What is the best practice for today's fine point restorations...cut and buff the back sides?

What are 28-29 Model A Front Fenders worth today? Yes I know...It all depends on condition of the fender itself.
I have about 10 sets of Front Fenders in various shapes and condition.
That goes for 28-29 Rear Fenders (No Beaver Tails).
Thanks.

by JwmckenzieJust was looking at the write up on repairing reproduction fenders in the Body Shop Forum, very informative.
https://www.vintagefordforum.com/for...-front-fenders
Seems the issue being addressed in the write up is a poor fit of the skirt nose to the fender. Is the problem the fender or skirt nose? I...-

by wrndlnI bought a pair of NOS front fenders a few years ago for my 29 CCPU. They have the usual scratches and chips on them from 90 plus years of storage. Usually I sandblast fenders before epoxy priming them, taking care of any blemishes and painting them with PPG Concept. I am wondering if I just scuff the fenders with Scotch Brite pads and spray a coat of high build primer on them and then sand them...

by Ronnie HillI just bought a pair of 31 welled fenders that are a little different than what I’ve seen before. I’m pretty sure the fenders are original but I’m not sure about the wells. The wells have two drain holes and no rib in the center. I’m sure someone here knows something about this.
I’d appreciate any information.

by DennisWould you or would you not put undercoat on under your fenders. My fenders had a few dings from underneath, which weren’t all that bad considering 90 yrs. but a previous owner had sprayed something on decades ago. It was pretty much petrified and took only a couple applications of paint stripper to get it off. Most likely this car will never judged at a MARC OR MAFCA event and if I were to undercoat...

What is the average price for Model A Fenders now a days?
I know it is all about condition but if you were to rate a fender between 1-10 (10 being the best), what would the price's be?
Thanks.
