Title: BTT50's question
Post by: Tom on June 13, 2008 7:57 pm
Those for you who are regulars to the fifties remember seeing a vendor who sells fender skirts?? Would you have a name??

If King of Dice is there, I thought they had some, Dallas should know otherwise!

I believe Wirths carries em and is usually there. But, I'm not sure if they got em for a 40 chevy though.

Night Prowlers hasn't been there for a few years, in fact Wirth's showed up the year they stopped coming.  I would think they have those skirts.

Big Jim's in Whitney, TX has a good selection but I checked the 50's vendor list and he isn't on there either.

Yeah Big Jim's does.  King of Dice told me a few years ago he wouldnt be coming back,the booth rent was too much.  Tom, JC Whitney has em, are you looking for a Fox Craft skirt that attached on top of the fender?

For the metal teardrop that fits over the fender like on this car.

I was wrong..........they still have them.  $179.00 plus shipping, but they are glass.
