I need the cowl trim for my 46 ford sedan. I can't find any. But I have a trim piece off a 4 door car that i can cut down. The question is,how do I turn the ends in to give it a finished look.
Thanks Russ&Irene :?:

Well, you can make a die to support it as you hammer form the end, you might have to do a bit of notching to get it to lay right, then silver solder the seams, and polish it.

I just hammer them over and the seems just go away...bad eyes.
