Hello 57chevyman. Could you show some pictures of how they put the hood and fenders together to make one unit. To bad I didn't see this before I cut my fenders. I also don't have inner fenders on mine. Have to work on that someday. The flip front sure makes it easy to play with the motor. That's why I did mine. Thanks for posting those pictures. I like it.

Earl

Nice set up.

Could you also show what you did to mount the rad.

Also the bump stops at the rear top of the fender.

Thanks and Happy New Year.

the fenders were cut into three pieces, then welded to the hood one at a time.
