1953-54 STUDEBAKER FRONT END ORNAMENTS

Any tips on drilling holes in the front fenders on my 1954 Commander?


Yep, Use 2 inch tape, put tape on pant leg first, (removes some of the sticky, so it won't pull paint) use at least 2 layers. Mark the holes on the tape, start with 1/8" drill, check for alignment to the studs, finish drilling, use a primer and a paint and brush touch the bare metal. (so it won't rust) install mldgs. Easy, use to do it all the time, when cars were made with bolt on parts instead of double sided tape parts!

Yes, contact the keeper of installation instructions, he has those templates. AC-2343. Dave Mottle

532 East Ella Corrales, NM 87048 I think he charges a dollar or two for the copies and postage.

YES, be sure you have a drill with a bit in it! (I think I read those rotten writing things too long!)
