Early 911 Porsche like this 67 shown below requires the right hand inner support fender panel to be the same as the left hand side.
When restoring these early cars ,there is only the later version of this panel available due to later cars and antenna clearance.

Mad skills. I forwarded the link to a buddy who plays with motorcycle fabrication. I'm sure he'll love it.
Thanks for sharing.

Check out the hammer skills. If I had attempted to follow that line it would have looked like a mad woodpecker had hit it.

It would be great if he would start doing the right side fender joiner pannel for the 69-to early 73 cars for the oil lines. I would be in for two of em. I dont even have a decent used one too send for a pattern.
