Well, if you look at the pics of the '47, you'll see that the PO bolted
some stainless steel skirts over the original fender. After mig welding
the holes shut and trying to smooth out the rest of the fender, I gave
up and bought a repop, sold the beat up one at a swap for half.
I still have the SS skirts, although I have to tell you that they add
another dimension to riding in a stiff breeze. It would be an neat
project, though.

| Looks good John. I just love the fenders on the Indians. Always wanted to graft some to a Loop.
