I bought the top kit from Snyders and installed it using their padding. It came out looking good. Thanks for all the advice.

I have to do the same modification to the rear fenders for my huckster too. I think the best solution is to remove the 2 1/2 inches from the middle of the fender rather than the edge. That way you lessen the problem of having two halves with different radius to weld back together.

I am to the point on my huckster build where I am about to put the top material on. Should I use padding on top of the wooden slats or should I fasten the top material directly on the slats?

I am in the process of rebuilding my differential and have run into a problem. The pinion/driveshaft is out of the differential and I am trying to separate them. I have used my big gear puller (12 inches) and cannot get it to budge. Does anyone have any tricks to get this apart?

Thanks everyone for the all the help. I have a follow up question about how the chicken wire and padding go on the front header. I am assuming the chicken wire fastens on top of the header behind the groove that is cut into it and the ends of the wire would tuck into that groove. I assume the...

I am about to install a new top kit on my 1930 Tudor. Should the padding under the top cover just the chicken wire or should it extend across the metal on the sides down to the drip rail?

I still need the fenders. If you have a set I can be reached at jgladf1930 at gmail dot com. I can't respond to PMs on this site.
