Is anyone aware of person/companies which will fabricate vintage fenders? I have a 1936 Chevy 1 1/2 ton panel truck with the correct left rear fender but not the right rear fender. I am told the 1/2 ton fenders will not work. Any advise or comments are appreciated.

I watched Ron Covell make a fender from scratch at one of his metal working classes. His DVD series includes one on how to copy a fender from one side for the other.

It's true. I really don't do anything but browse the Internet looking for trouble...

That routine is available on DVD on his website;

Scratch-Building a Fender

What do you do if you have a car with a fender that is damaged beyond repair, or missing? Ron shows how to use the opposite fender to design a buck, pointing out the fea-tures required to make a new fender that perfectly mirrors the model. You’ll see him analyze a ’36 Ford fender, determine the number of pieces to make it from, and exactly where to place the seams to accommodate the intricate details, including the running board bulge and the rolled edge of the wheel opening. This is a fascinating, in-depth look at the start-to-finish construction of a challenging project!
