radius rear fenders....

(1/1)

fatguyzinc:

 we are considering doing the old school radius cut-out rear fenders
to fit jumbo rear tires on the 55 plymouth, i have done the 'brake tubing'
deal before but the final bodywork is always fun in a 'crease' like that.

how about a trailer fender? split in half and use the 'lip' to finish off the
rear fender after cutting? a local shop here has em in 18 ga steel with
either a 31" or 33" radius for only $24 each.

what do you guys/girls think, worth a try?

lowboy:
Sounds fine to me . Save a ton of bodywork. and won't have that edge to cut the tires

hotwheels:
For 24 bucks, would make a nice look.

Blackwater:
Great idea!!

hotwheels:
For the price, it’s worth a try.
