This buck was built to be a throw away. Scrap wood laying around mostly. I will be building the rear fender buck when I'm done with this part. That will be a much more versitile buck. One reversable buck for both rear fenders.

I started making the inner framework for the deck lid today. I didn't have much time but I got some work done. I started with the forward corners where the hinges will mount. I made a template of the seal area plus the contour along the front and side edges. I started roughing the right side.

I think you're right, John. This isn't a complex shape. Its difficult to handle because it's so large but there's enough stations to tell me if I'm symmetrical and smooth. Now, the rear fenders... That's a different story.

I didn't like the corner piece I started making. Too many parts. I decided to incorporate the corners into the side rails so I whipped up a template and started making the right side.

I tipped the edges to get a 3/4" drop plus a flange to hem the skin to. After those were done the rail was nearly flat compared to the contour of the deck side panels.

I used the stretcher on both edges of the rail to match the shape to the contour of the weather seal lip on the gutter.
After I got the contour right I tipped the last flanges. The outboard flange is where the skin will attach. The dropped center area will be against the weather seal. That's as far as I got tonight
