Default Greeting From Atlanta

I'm currently working on the restoration of an old Aeronca aircraft. I came to this forum to explore possibilities for how to reproduce cowling parts which have not been commercially available in decades.

The two pieces I'm particularly interested in are the nose bowl, which is a deep drawn shape in aluminum, and the bottom cowl, which is a very large convex shape.

Here's a link to a picture of a completed airplane like I'm restoring.

Any thoughts you have on the nosebowl or bottom cowl would be appreciated.

Kyle
