Thanks.
Widening the bed or fenders is something I want to do.
I like how simple Lakeroadster made it look widening just the bed; http://image.hotrod.com/f/Lakeroadst...c10-swb-ss.jpg
But I like the beefy look of your wider fenders.

Re: 1965 chevy truck one piece @a time
 

here is a couple of the pics of the driver fender and the passinger side before they put it on the truck :chevy:

Re: 1965 chevy truck one piece @a time
 

Hi here is a couple of pics of the fenders on the truck with the widen step to match the fender . it was cut with an spare step i had used just one step .and used 1 5/8 of the metal on the widing of the step and fender . hope its
not raining tomarrow nite it is coming home :metal::chevy: and just added about 2 inches to the step brace at the end and redrilled the holes for the steps .

Re: 1965 chevy truck one piece @a time

Re: 1965 chevy truck one piece @a time

Re: 1965 chevy truck one piece @a time
 

It is home not much done on the truck over the weekend .got it home Friday
night had some thumbs up and some oh great looks from some of the nabors
when i fires up the truck and unloaded it guess they didn't like there windows rattling from the the flowmaster with super 44's :lol: had to build a garden table Saturday for mom .
Sunday moved stuff around and started the rework on the doors ..
put the truck in the front of the shop and covered it and blocked of the front with plastic . so i guess its slowly going back together one piece @a time:chevy::metal:

Re: 1965 chevy truck one piece @a time
 

So Cool!
I'm getting anxious for you. :)

Re: 1965 chevy truck one piece @a time
 

I think yours look perfect in relation to the cab.
I guess there used to be 3" wider fenders available in fiberglass.
They look just a little too wide for my taste;

Re: 1965 chevy truck one piece @a time
 

just a little update started working on the doors for the truck its just a little to warm to jet it done little by little . with it being 100 degrees out side but just a couple of pics

Re: 1965 chevy truck one piece @a time
 

Looking Awesome!!...What is the tire/wheel combyour using for the rears? they look great!...Keep up the good work.

Re: 1965 chevy truck one piece @a time
 

The tire and wheel combo is 15x12 rallies 9in back space
and the tires are 31x16x15 the rear end is from a 70 model chevy truck
which is a little wider . and streached the fenders 1 1/2.. with the wider fenders I can go to a 14 inch wide mag wheel when i'm ready :metal::chevy:

Re: 1965 chevy truck one piece @a time
