1949 Ford Tightening Mandrels
Since the top of the wheeltub is so large, we decided to make it in two pieces, making a seam at the center top of the tub. We determined our dimensions by measuring along the radius of the inner panel. Each piece of this tub will be 28 inches long by 12 inches wide. These pieces needed to match the radius of the inner well, so we rolled them out on a slip roll and checked them against the vertical piece often until they matched. View Related Article
