Are those fenders wider than stock and if so how did you deal with the steps.

Re: (( 1960-1966 Chevy/GMC Pickup Truck Restoration/Modification/Customization Ideas
They are the wide fiberglass ones, I know most people don't care for them but I think they fit my truck well plus they alowed me to run a 22X12 and still lay frame. Years ago when I got them they came with a step (also fiberglass) but the step was just a smoothed regular size step so I pie cut it to fit then glassed in the hole. To mount the step I fiberglassed in bolts to it then drilled holes in the support from the bed. I also made new support rods from the frame since it was more flimsey than steel.

I saw a mod like that in a old horror movie one time. I can’t remember if it was Dracula or Frankenstein or a delightful mix of the two. It had some sort of wooden box on top.

What is going on? Did they run out of Mini trucks and 80’s imports to play with and now they have moved on to 60’s trucks
