 |
|
I just started working on the fenders, drivers side rear first. Got the outside stripped and now stripping the inside so I can hammer and dolly out the small dings. The lip is kind of bent up, so it needs metal finishing, too.
Does anyone have a suggestion of a good shaped dolly to get in the small curved lip on the fender? I have an idea for making one, but if it is already available, I'll just buy it.
Thanks,
Dan |

Do you have a dolly set? There's a curved dolly that came with my set that I used to straighten out one of my fender lips. It's the top middle dolly in this set: http://www.eastwood.com/7-pc-body-and-fender-pro-s...nt_id=5026

I have a cheap hammer and dolly set from HF that I picked up about 8 years ago. It doesn't have that dolly in it but the set they have listed now does, along with 3 other dollies, all different than the ones I have.
Time to run to HF this weekend and pick up the new set.
Maybe I'll get lucky and the hammers will be different, too.
Thanks,
Dan |
