    Here is a buck i made just for the upper part of the two wheel wells. They are way rounder then the other lines.The lower end of them start to go flat like the other style line so they are formed later when i connect them all together. This buck is screwed to the table and can be flipped for left and right sides. It's 5/8 065 tube with some 1/4 round tacked to the top for the gentle taper. It's ready to come off and be trimmed.

    Rolled her out in the sunshine to clean the shop. Nice to see a different angle and see what looks weird. Back to work, Ray

    HOLY COW! Thanks for this thread. You're showing us that it CAN be done without $50,000 worth of tools.
