I didn't try to finish the underside at all, just ground the weld off & primed it!
The primer that I am using on the underside dries kinda shiny, and is real thick...I took the photo with the intention of displaying the weld the best that I could. I'll probably just scotchbrite it & paint the underside.
And don't forget, I got a couple hours of block-sanding into these.
I'm pretty proud, but why shouldn't I be?...Isn't this why we are doing these builds?
I was just going to buy fenders too, until I saw all of the work that you were doing on your build!!!.....Inspiration/motivation!
