You can always learn something new. For me, one new idea was the way the Overhaulin crew flared the rear fenders after learning they had a tolerance issue. Now, I didn't want to spend the time trying to form metal bars and screwing them to the fiberglass. If I did, there'd be more holes than fender by the time I got everything aligned. I decided to use "C" clamps and a couple of sticks between the body sections and the tire instead. I laid it out the same way Foose did, but I also drilled holes at the top of the cuts. A hole will distribute the stress of bending the glass. Even so, at an old repair, where the glass was thicker, the surface cracked a bit and the glass around it will have to be dug out.
I'll have to cut the unused interior radiator mount away from the body in order to finish the front of the flare. So far, from marking the fender to this point, it has taken about an hour and a half. I'm quite pleased. I'll be making the rear fenders using a shaped foam mold. I'll know when its all over, which was the better way.
