    Richard Graves built a fenderless '37 tudor about ten years ago, but I can't remember if it was a hump back or slant back. It wasn't too bad looking, but certainly not handsome. A couple of coupe type hiboys were done at the height of the high tech craze during the mid ninties, and they didn't look too bad, but were completely fabricated bodies. I do remember seeing some early lakes photos of a nearly new '37 with the fenders pulled running. The reason they 're rare is it just isn't a good look with that particular car. I have always thouight that if you moved the front axle forward a bit to the spring over situation, you might be able to pull it off. Gotta get it low though... Look up Ridler winners from the early nineties, and Richard Graves car was featured in Street Rodder about '99 or so.

    Fat fendered cars (or trucks) do not look good without fenders.

    it ain't traditional guys.....in fact our fenderless law here in Oregon says, "PRE 36 American cars on dry paved roads"
