Would there be any interest in a tutorial

[Guest Gramps-xrds]

I recently did one on another forum for a friend and thought if there's any interest in it I would do one for here too. If so, just post a reply and I'll do it.

Here's what they can look like.

I would LOVE to see a tutorial on that.

Have a Mercury on the bench I was planning to make some cruiser skirts just like those for. Those are aluminum? They look to have just the right thickness!

Just like my Insight!

That's 'em Bill! My cousin Mingo had them on his 55 after he had the cruzer skirts( that's wat I always called those kinda skirts) They had a prow type of front, similar to the bow of a PT boat. And they had that "bubble" type shape to 'em like you got on that lil 49. But there wasn't a scoop of any kind on the front, they just start to flair out into the shape I'm decribing. Maybe there's another name for them elsewhere's but here in Deeetroit we called 'em Bubble Skirts.

George I know the ones you're talkin about. The tutorial is pretty much the same for those except the front end is a little different. I'll see what the difference will be and post it in the tips & tricks with the others. ok ?
