    It just looks complete with fenders. They could be trimmed (slightly) but the aesthetics and popular poll demand that they stay.
    ...and quoting the Highlander: "Doesn't Fexit very well!"
     
  2. Lose the fenders you leave the "gasser" class too -Right into altered you go.

    My vote is "Femain"-let the fenders stay on!

    Just using current events to make a point. I figure this "Brexit" shit will raise the value of our cars so it's even on topic;)
    Hey, my story, tell it my way, right?

    On that particular style of car the fenders are mandatory for the "look ".

    Here is the results. Fenders made wider and radius ed to fit wheel opening and make getting the tire and rim on and off without the tight fit it had before. Hope you like it.[​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]

    Fenders look very nice. Wet sanding looks good too, you can never spend too much time sanding. Bob

  19. You did right. After the alterations the rears are perfect. Keep 'em, it's a no brainer!
     
  20. Alterations look great.

    Thanks guys. I am very pleased how they came out. The wider rear fender blends nicely with the wide front fenders now and access to the tires make it a pleasure now.
     
  22. Very nice job. I like the look with the fenders on.:cool:

    Looks very ice. Without fenders reminded me of the goofy trend where guys were building Deuce Hiboys, but completely tucking 15" wide tires Pro Street style.
