custom inner fenders
 
i'm getting ready to build some custom inner fenders on my truck, so i can lay the front crossmember on the ground. just wondering if any of you guys could post some pics of what you did with yours, so I can get some ideas. thanks

I've seen a couple different ways to do it. A few guys have modified the stock inners like this first pic but most that I see are trailer fenders like the middle couple pics. Hope these pics help. I have been collecting pics of these because i plan to do it soon too.

Hey Tagg33, Good pics. The other hurdle is to figure out how to do the hood hinges. I like the 1st pic(the stock modified inners)I wonder if stock hinge can be used.

Im not good at posting links and all that, but the best set of fenders i have seen were from highgear hot rods on a 68 c-10, called Retroactive. I think their website is highgearhotrods.com. I want something like that! Also amember on here called ATP from charlotte nc had a nice set he was working on similar to highgears, u may be able to look at his build thread.

What about the factory a/c box? Or non a/c for that matter. Can that work also?

Definitely not with A/C, not sure on the heater box, but I doubt it. As you can see, the fire wall is shaved.
