Default 48 Ford inner fender panels

Its hard for humans today compete with machines when product is in demand but there is no way machines can compete with human when you only need to make one part even metalworking equipments are worthless you hands and hand tools faster and cheaper

Nice job Sollis, Most things can be done with hand tools and as you say often it is quicker than setting up a machine.

Nice panel!! Looking at the panel in the picture I guess I would have just fixed the old panel. Was it quicker just starting from scratch? The beads going into the flange would be a chalenge.

All we need is to convince you to do the "in-progress" pics!

Some beautiful work though!
