Default 1934 Plymouth PE Truck Fender

Need a simple buck which will reverse ?? for the rear fenders of the Pickup I'm restoring, it came with 37/8 fenders which are completely wrong. Fortunately I'm also working on a 33 coupe that I can get contours data from. The build that this thread refers to can be found here http://www.allmetalshaping.com/showthread.php?t=12747

The sheet represents the bed side to give a datum to work from.

These stations are made from 5/8" x 0.08" aluminium flat

The plan is to form a set of profile gauges, cut a base and back board bracket them together, cut a curved to the wheel arch profile less the material for the rolled edge. Fix the curved piece to the base board and screw the stations in position, they will probably need to have radial support on the inside but time will tell.
