Re: Parked Indefinite

With the doors aligned to standard that these trucks provide, which is what it is, it was time to fit the fenders and finish the inner fender raising job on the driver side. I was dreading this since the passenger side seemed like a never ending cycle of cut, weld, grind, repeat. I was also was holding off because the fender was rotten in some ugly places, but the search to find another was plagued by no one on craigslist returning my calls or messages. I ended up deciding to just fix the fender I had which turned out okay I guess. Used another fender that I had around back to fix the bottom and made a sheet metal patch to repair the wheel opening area. Also got a start on raising the inner fender flange...here's some pics of where I'm at:

Fender bottom...you know you're grasping at straws when you have to patch the patch!
