Re: Turning radius
The steering goes from stop to stop on our car so I don't think the turning radius would change. The stops are the ultimate determining factor for radius correct?

Re: Turning radius
I'm not sure about the radius, but doesn't the shortened arm just allow quicker steering response? I didn't think it would change radius.

The fenders from Brookville Roadsters in OHio are really preety nice. Not much needed to prep them for paint. They fit pretty well also.

Re: 1930 CCPU Roof Molding
I used the metal trim on the front and rear. Our truck was painted and I just masked the area with a couple layers of painter's tape. I don't think the rear would accept the hide em.
