Know any clever b*****s

Hi I am trying to find somebody to make a pair of curvy fenders, mudguards to you and me for an old ford pick up truck. In the southern part if possible.
Many Thanks

Hi

Look up coachbuilders and vehicle restorers in your area and find one who knows how to use an English wheel

They'll also know how to charge

This is big job and there are few craftsmen around with either the skills or tools these days. I would hazard a guess that importing them from the USA is likely to be cheaper.

http://www.spiritoftheseventies.com/s/ could be worth a call. Custom build mudguards show up quite often albeit bike sized.

and they are in Sevenoaks.

Might be worth looking for a Morgan dealer in your area. The one near where we used to live did a lot of restoration on old Morgans, and had a wheeling machine which his "lad" knew how to use! Unlikely to be cheap, but possibly cheaper than the real vintage restoration guys.

A guy on another forum I use does Hot Rods, not sure if he could help...
