    Hey, be kind to me Dean. My commie rotten keyboard dropped the "l"! Besides, I spent my time in English class reading Rod & Custom and Car Craft hiding inside my English book! It made life in my English class bare able while putting up with Mrs. Mildewed Dean, a 4 door Studebaker driver.

    I've always liked the fenders over non-fender look, I guess I've been "an old man" my whole life.
    Beautiful car!

    Nice cars have fenders, hot rods don't.

    Little taller tire on those rear steelies w/out fenders would look great. But...the fenders do add a bit of refinement to an already nice car.

    I've had it both ways, like fenders, car looks Good, guess now you have choices, wheels and fenders switcheroo.

    fenders make the car.
     
  19. I agree. That particular car looks way better with fenders.

    That is part of what I love about our great hobby, we have different ideas of what looks good and sometimes I find that I like something that I wouldn't have thought I would like! That makes going to the car shows so much fun, seeing others ideas that I otherwise would not have even considered doing!

    Stock roof... level stance... modest tire sizes. That thing had to have fenders. MUCH better with them.

    I like it with fenders and will add, I think a 32 roadster with fenders and lowered is probably one of the most beautiful cars so a coupe would be right in there for appearance!

    I'd have to run fenders with the present wheel/tire combo. Then, when the urge grabbed me, I'd peel off the aprons, running boards and fenders, swap to some hotrod wheels and tires for a few months. Swap it back to fenders when I felt like it.
