Wire guards for under the fenders. These protected the wires for the side lights mounted on the front fenders. I had one original and needed a second one for the other fender. A simple press die was made up from some scraps of metal. I welded up two pieces of 1/8” angle iron to a piece of steel plate. The metal rod for the other side of the die was welded to another piece of steel plate. Quite pleased with how this turned out. To flare out the end of the stamping, a tapered punch was clamped in the vice. I then used my ball peen hammer to work out the ends of the flare. The mounting holes were punched using my hydraulic press punch, although I need to get some other dies that match the original shape of the holes.
