I saw some hand formed aluminum yesterday at Dunkel's. I did post this at Pelican, but I wanted to see how it works here. Sorrry to be redundant as I know most of you go back and forth. I think there are more 914 boards than 911.

Brant, sorry. I should have tole the story: I hogged out the wood form with a 4" grinder using a 24 grit disc. I heated the alum with a high carbornizing flame to soften it. It was sooty from the torch, hence the black dots on the form. I then hammered and dollyed the pieces using conventional metal techniques. I don't have and mandrels to beat on, so I put one of my dollies in a vise. Trimmed it up and fit it. I have no idea about how I'm going to mount it yet. The buckets are gone, it's just the fender.
