NASCAR old-timers have essentially created body mockups on a car,then attached the car to a rotisserie such that they could rotate the car enough to cast concrete molds over the mockups.
After a 30-day cure,sheet steel was hammered into the concrete tooling.With cutting,spot-welding,re-annealing,and additional hammer work,sheet metal body parts were created.

I would like to make them out of sheet metal so it looks like they are supposed to be there. If I have a drawing, I can have them made locally.
I really appreciate the suggestions. This is a great forum, and I enjoy checking out all of the modifications.
