Pickin' a fender color...

[Chris C]

I LIKE it! No wonder you're talkin' 'bout orange fenders! Who cares if you go off topic at 1:30 in the morning, anyway?

Fenders? You mean I have to buy fenders too?

Just use the HF, RedTrailer, or TSC and the fenders are included!

Hey Bledsoe, we used to take the fenders off our bikes when we were kids. Maybe you could just "think it was cool" to throw rooster trails up into the air while driving in the rain.

So cool it's illegal most places

Seriously though I'm thinking of painting my fenders (and rear bumper) with chrome bumper paint. My tear will be painted either white or a two tone white+something else. Chrome bumper paint covers well and resists chips. Touch up is easy with a brush.

Yep that the way the Orphan fenders are. Painted alum to match the alum sides. I think I'm going to keep it that way, just repaint.


Have a good day.

Chris, I remember well the days of yester year making rooster tails, "and" having the mud fly right up up my back . . . .

Gage, that old tear in the picture, I assume your going to re-store, the fenders on it, are they 47/48 ford truck fenders, they look cool. I'd like to see pics of it when you finish it . . . .

I think they are Dodge truck fenders. Not sure but it has Dodge hubs on it, so they could be. And yes, I'm going to restore it for my sister.

Have a good day.

Jim, we weren't cool if our white t-shirts didn't have a brown streak up the back.

Boy, the guy who constructed that unit knew how to over build a frame.

Gage,

That's the same picture that you showed us last year. I want to see what it looks like today... No excuses now...

That's what it still looks like. Just parked in a different location. My sister is getting close to retirement so I have to start on it this year along with my other two (now three (engine swap for the '56) projects.

Mitheral, you should see the frame that's under the body.

Have a good day.

[Laredo]

Yep, Dodge fenders -- from a pickup like Jeff/Timmy's family had in early Lassie episodes.

Is it a whole Dodge pickup bed trailer underneath?
