I have a drawing I made using my old fenders for a pattern. I am partway finish building a hammerform to try to make a fender. If you can be patient for a few months I will let you know how they come out.
The drawing is a .tcw This is the native format for "turbocad", the poor man's autocad. I have the option of saving it as .dwg or .dxf, but they usually don't work.
I can also mail you a hard copy or maybe even get it as an Acrobat file when I get back in country. That will be in a week. In anycase, I would like to check the drawing before I send it to you.
I have an unscaled copy of the body drawing for the truck the second series bed (like 1952). That fender is similar except the way it hooks to the truck. I have scanned it aand stretched it untilit is a scale. I hmave used this along with the fender to get my dimension. I can give you a paper copy of it when I get back.
