Default Re: What did he do?

The front and rear fenders look like they’re made without compound curves. Easier to form sheet stock in just one plane. I watched Mark Gerisch bend, stretch, and shrink a sheet of aluminum to form a section of a fender with headlight nacelle for a custom bodied sports racer with a changing-radius crown, tapering profile and reverse curve. I will never criticize anyone who builds their own bodywork.
