Coronet fender will not work on a Daytona clone....you must use the '70 Charger fender....

The lead (or other filler that you might use today) is added to that top leading edge to make it match the contour of the nose cone.

True, but the main mod part is cutting off and bending the lower front fender to accept the the fender ext

Thanks, I've been following it.  Been great and saving the pics as a reference source  :2thumbs: for when I start putting the clone together.   Unless I missed something, he had said that the lead had been removed already in the pics of the fenders from the dip.  I was hoping to find somewhere a pic of what the unpainted buildup should look like on the fender so I could have a better idea of what I'm supposed to do to the fender conversion.  The fenders are the last thing I need to get but I'm following up on some potential sources.
