Good luck on this one!
I have heard that Steelcraft products are British Motor Heritage approved.
( But, don't take my word ... it is hearsay. ) Moss is a BMH approved
vendor.
I have heard some write here that ordering from England ensures good
quality.
I too, would like to know the brand names that people have had experience
with and like. I have a couple of Steelcraft rear 1/2 fenders in the
basement, and while they look fine to me, it will most likely be a couple of
years before they get fitted. Meanwhile, I continue to scrounge.
