Fender flaires??? Anybody got them on their 67-72?

i'm wanting to try put big tires on my 72 with 4 inch suspension lift and 3 inch body lift. i got a set of 39s lined up but i might have to clip the front fenders to make them fit. Has anybody done this? has anybody put fender flaires on the 67-72? got any pictures?

Not mine, just a pic I had saved.... Usually not a fan of the look but I like this one. Good luck.

Problem is, we have the best looking body design, so why screw it up. It would be like adding another window to the Taj Mahol

I agree with AJ, haven't seen one yet that works for me

Hey guys, I've been in CO for a bit, visiting with family and starting on plans for a move out here. Anyways when I get back to FL I will be banging out some work, and hanging a pair of my fenders on a truck. maybe simple 'bolt on' arches could be available in the near future...(hint hint)


anyways, shameless plug:
