I had good original remains of mudflaps front (yse there were small front mudflaps that should be there) and rear on my 1944 C60 to reproduce.. I put the exact plans in one of the old Convoy Magazines.
There was no wire.. there was a bit of horsehair padding between the canvas layers, and a metal stiffener stitched in across the bottom. All were thread stitched.
If someone has the old Convoy Mag you'll get a very accurate dimensions and plans to repro the flaps including the stitching pattern.
