It looks like were going to have to split the rear fenders and widen them about and 3/4 to an inch wider to get the tires to fit under the fenders ..
![]() ![]() another step back wards but hey that s part of the fun just more money .. |

went and stoped by the shop tonite to see how they are wrer doing on the spacing of the fenders . they are about an 1 5/8's wider now over stock
and still in side the cab body line so there not sticking out . its going to be hard to tell unless they know what there looking for ![]() ![]() had to do some slide mods to the fender to match up . but when finished i hope it won't be noticable |

Re: 1965 chevy truck one piece @a time
I've thought of doing mine that way, but I also like the way Lakeroadster did his. He just widened the whole box.
