I did this a while back but here we go!!! Break out the grinder, welder and Mud bucket.
Items you will need:
1953 or Equivalent Mercury Rings. They do sell a re-pop version, which im using here.
-Welder
-Angle Grinder
Step 1 - Remove your Headlight buckets
Step 2 - insert your bucket from the inside of the fender to attach. Sometimes the outer lip will have to be ground off if you are using stock "smooth" french rings like on a 1950 Ford, to flush the bucket to the fender and make the correct contour/shape w/ the headlight ring.
Step 3 - grind around front of fender where you will welding new ring.
