Ease up... it's for an older cousin of mine.
Looking for a Continental kit for a 1955 Ford.
He says he hears rumors of some place in Tulsa but no one can verify that this is true.

Thanks
Root

Hemmings had a few listed.
These guys have one. (http://www.fenderskirtking.com/ContinentalKits/main.html)

Try this too:
"Ford 1955-56 continental kit, new full extended style, nice, $495; Jeff's Custom's, 520-575-8479, AZ."

...guy in Missouri named Lyle Hutchens makes excellent ones.
He makes them for a lot of Retractables but I saw one on his personal original high school car, a '55 or 56 Ford. He's in Rolla, MO Try an internet phone directory search, I'll try to find his contact info, I have it somwhere.
