Your pictures are just not coming through. I use the 'Insert image' tab that you see at the far left of the text box, just under the Comment: label.It always seems to work for me.

I notice a dent in the frame neck, you think this will interfere with the fork?





Should I fix it, it has never bother me in the past.

After Jim worked with the fenders in the blasting cabinet we discover some led, copper and metal patches.
As I mentioned before poor Zenaida had a hard life.

Bondo is a magic think, isn´t it?





The hole is 3/8 thick, the patch makes the fender super heavy.


The welder and body worker did a great job hiding this.







The front fender is to damaged to save, and rear fender lost it´s shape.

I decided to replace them instead of bondo my way out of it.



Do you have an extra set? Please help me.

This was a latter replacement.





I found a bolt welded in the center stand stay....

[San Arthur]

The rear fender tabs and the foot peg mount have been welded.








A small progress!!!

I think my fenders are beyond repair. I you have a better set, please PM me.

They have several layers of metal patches, in some places 3/8 thick.





Lead, copper and bondo was used to cover the metal patches.
