how do you pull a front fender off? (gently), i DID do a search but never really found anything. Options

hmm. i think this car was hit in the front at some point so i don't know yet if i have a big problem on that fender or not. i am not naive about this but since it may be a replacement fender i am not assuming anything until i get a grinder with a flapper wheel and a drill with a wire-brush-wheel after it. i have done the spot-weld bit before. i come from the world of brit cars, remember? when i can get the nose of the teener in the garage and dig into that corner, i will see what i have.

i will stick up a pic of my '72 GT with bits off and spot welds drilled off.

i will also still up a pic showing the mystery car....the gray four door that you could see a bit of in the pic i put in the lead post...and which might look a bit like a type 3...is a 1963 MG Magnette IV. yes, it is a four door MG. it has the drive train out of the MGA II (4 cyl BMC B-series 1622, four speed, dual SU carbs--HD4s in the 1.5 inch, i think) though some bits of the clutch and brake hydraulics were unobtainium on these shores. she is a positive ground car. she is one of the projects i am working on now. i have her mechanically good enough to drive around the driveway though i have now pulled the carpet and am assessing the floorboards.

the Scout is a 1963 Scout 80. 4 cylinder 4WD. another project that followed me home. she has the character of a farm tractor and maxes out at 45 mph, but will do that straight up a phone pole in 4WD. it is a work in process like all of my cars...the biggest thing it needs is floorboards, but since they aren't structural, its no big deal.

Whoops, I got ahead of myself, a 4 door MG, very cool, kinda looks like a princess from the rear.
