I believe most of it is the former japco moulds.   Keith does a good job and
prices are reasonable.

parts, the full bonnet in one piece, the two inner fenders separately. A local
body man put them together for me. Had to cut out the openings for the grille,
and used the cutout pieces as supports for the inner fenders. Just has
indentations where the side clips went (I'm held on with hood pins at the top
rear corners). Some wood blocks maintain the spacing of the sides from the
interior body.
