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.
...And if you call in the next 20 minutes, cause we can't do this all day...

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?
