    Looks good as far as I could tell, next video if you can get some shots of them from different angles so we can see how it looks

    The fenders turn out pretty good but you're scaring me Fred, hope I don't need to do this to mine. I should find out soon...

      You are courageous. Ha Don't think I would have the nerve for that.

    Nice work Rudy. Good idea to use the judge saw. Since you have used the CV cab mounts I was wondering if you could have just added 3/4" delrin spacers on top of the mounts with longer mount bolts. Real nice fender work though.

    Find you some fenders from an f350. They have a wider wheel opening.

    So cool! I’m not sure I would have thought of widening the fenders in that fashion, as inspired by F600 trucks. Do you plan to put marker lights on top as well? Might tie it in nicely.
    Can’t wait to see what you do with the box sides! It’ll be like a Raptor that’s way ahead of its time.

    It looks good so I made a decision to tackle mine.
    Got my cut made but could not tell if you butt welded the patch in or over lapped it on the underside .
    Great project.
    Thanks

      Thanks for the comment Mike. Mostly butt welded, but some areas ended up being overlapped a bit also. Good luck and hope you are happy with how yours turns out. Would be cool to see some images when you are finished. Cheers!

      @@rudysresurrection5897 I finished one and would like to send you some pics of my 20” x 8” with 345 /45 -20 tires.
      My front is lowered 2.0 “ with the outcast auto works kit. Look good and I don’t think I’ll have any rub issues.
      I don’t know how to send pictures on here.
      Thanks

    What was your trick aligning the doors back up? Unfortunately I did not drill guide holes before my deconstruction

    interesting... i did the Crown Vic swap on my 67 F-100 and have no tire rubbing issues at all ?...
    Good work as usual though!

    I love the big cheek look. What was the final amount of width added to the fender top?

    • @rudysresurrection5897
      @rudysresurrection5897  4 года назад +1

      Thanks for watching Christian. I added 3" at the top of the fenders.

    About the finder. Why you dont try to make the opening arond the tier more biger. I mean to make the tier show and move side to side with out touching the inside finder. It is easy way more than wide the finder

    Gutsy move but I think it will look good.
