Default HUP had fender welt and tar cloth

Hi Bruce


My 1945 HUP had the fender welt as used on cars of the 30s basically oil cloth folded over a bead of jut rope. But it all so had about 2" wide fabric impregnated with with either tar or cosmoline.


I bough the fender welt over the year but I have also made in out of good grade oil cloth, folding it and sewing in hard cloths line rope. Both have stood up well, but then again my trucks now live indoors so rust has not been as much of a problem in the second half of their lives as the first.


Cheers Phil
