Jordan, when I look over your new fenders and bins, I am reminded how fragile our old HMVs really are. Sure they look impressive and capable of knocking down trees. But if they break, it is lots of hard work to fabricate or repair what is broken, and that doesn't include finding spare parts when they simply don't run.

Terry, Good points.
Managed to get the piece all straightened out. I ended up using the shop press to clamp the bent piece. Then clamped on a very large chuck of steel plate to it. This gave me the leverage to bend the piece back into shape and get rid of the twist that was in it. Lastly the lids for the fender stowage bins are almost done. The pins that hold the lids in place were made up and welded in. These lids did not use any hinges. I just need to make up the lock hasps.

Nicely thought out repair for the antenna mount, Jordan. Your 15-CWT FFW and Otter will be talking to each other in no time.
