Front Fender Stainless Trim

[Ray C.]

Hi!
Could someone please email or post a picture of the stainless trim on the front fenders of a 1961? I am especially interested in the reveal on the wheel opening side of the trim.

Thanks for any help!

Ray/Brad,

Had the same problem with SS from CC. It can be bent but it ain't easy. I sandwiched mine between two pieces of 3/4 inch plywood along with the appropriate thickness of spacers and very slowly and carefully applied the necessary pressure to the rounded leading edge to bend it. The plywood keeps it from crimping. I was told later that judges don't expect it to fit perfectly.

Hi!

Thanks for the responses! I would still like some pictures of an original fender with the stainless trim. I had to correct a previous restoration on the front right fender and would like to confirm location before the final coat of lacquer.

Again Thanks!
