I like the Auburn Speedster fenders! Here's a '35 that toured with us last summer. The dash plate says it topped 100 mph in an "official test" before leaving Indiana! CLASSIC!

The fenders are great, but to me, this looks unfinished:

It would be better (again, MHO) to have the tail wider and stick out further from the rear of the car. That way, it doesn't look so much like an "afterthought". Again, all MHO.

if i remember my reading correctly, all Auburns in that era were equipped with that dash plate, which, again iirc, was signed by Ab Jenkins. I belive they had to meet 100.8 miles per hour.

Really a beautiful car, the auburn speedster!

It swoops down too far in the back, and that's something I'm trying to avoid.
