I'm trying to convince the hubby to build a Cubby teardrop as a fun project for the both of us to do together. I believe I'm winning.
I've been searching sites for ideas on materials. The one thing I can't seem to find is a source for cool fenders. Something that looks like it came from a '37 truck but is a reproduction. Where could these be found?

Mary, if your going to build a Cubby on a HF frame, you just might be hard pressed to find a '37 type chevy fender that's not to big for the wheel/tire combo and look good. I've got '37 Chevy fenders on mine, but my tear is 10 feet long and has 15" wheels & tires on it. Just something to think about.dakotamouse wrote:Hi Folks!

Just one of the reasons I have over $5000 in my build.bledsoe3 wrote:Gage wrote:Oh, and they're not cheap. Mine cost $185 each.
Ouch
The quality is remembered long after the price is forgotten, so
build your teardrop with the best materials you can find!
