Hi George,

Do you have a pic of it? Sounds interesting.

I tried to post a picture here in the testing forum, but haven't figured it out yet.

Here goes. I got the idea from lazze metal shaping - a video on you tube. I useed mostly what I had on hand- 1/4 in by 1 1/2 in angle iron, square tubing, and 1/2 in steel rod. I bought the 1 7/16 steel balls and the squeeze clamps on ebay, and welded it together. You can move the arms any way you need to hols your fender or what ever. I tightened up the angle iron pieces with 1/2 in bolts to nuts welded on to the backside of the other piece. The tire base is an old trailer rim. I tried to make it as cheap as possible. I'll paint it after it warms up this spring.

Welcome George!
Well this is the place to try out uploading pics. I see you got the hang of it! I had typed post about pics sizes, but you got it as I was typing!!!
Do you have pics of the car? 36 2dr right?

No I don't. I'll try to take some tomorrow. I have to go to work. It is a 2 door standard sedan without a trunk.

I made one, from a old bedframe... the light angle I made a Aframe, used the Adjustable cross bars that were on the bed to set the width..

I used it last at Kerry's Dixieland meet to hold the 1919 ford cowl..

Pretty cool the way you made yours adjustable.. I got some tubing jig-clamps that look similar.

I tried Magnets on motorcycle fender jigs.. when you paint the part.. it seems to collect bits of trash in the paint. No clue why?
