Time to correct the front fenders on my ‘31 Mail Truck. When I got her, she had a welled left instead of the standard. And a standard right instead of the well for the spare. I found two good standard front fenders recently. Bill Gift in Chambersburg did a beautiful job installing a wheel well in the right one. They’re bead blasted, primed and under coated on the insides. Now prepping the primer for sealer and top coat.

Question is, what is your preference for the black top coat? Locally, Nason is available or Eastwood via the catalog. I could use Ranthane urethane from an aircraft supplier.

Point is, this is a driver that I want to take care of. It will never be judged without a total body rebuild. Factory original paint is not a priority. Good looks and durability are. Thanks!
