1967 buick special wagon

With the front and rear of the wagon looking so aggressive, the sides between the tires look so skinny. So I flipped the bracket that mounts the side skirt, spaced it out with 1.5 x 3 inch rectangular steel spacers and pushed the skirts out 5 inches in total.

With the bracket flipped and the 3 inch spacers, the skirts moved out about 5 inches. Now I have to figure out how to best fill the space between the body line at the bottom of the doors and the skirts.

Using cardboard templates to figure out the filler panels for the side skirts. I painted it white for better visual reference.

I started working on making wedges for the bottoms of the doors.

I started mocking up the driver's side when my dad's friend walked into the shop and we were discussing the design. I told him it wouldn't work as a single piece, and mocked it up to show him. Turns out, I was wrong. It totally works as one piece. I'll just need to sweep the leading edges of the extensions back just a little. So, Version 2.0. They'll be one piece.
