This is an original fender of my 67 that I painted and hung up on my wall. The original color was the Seafoam Green.

Nice, need one of those for my garage!

shaneschevys · 01-17-2007, 01:19 PM

That looks pretty cool.

Funny, I thought about doing something like that with the junk burb I have. I was gonna whack off a corner of the 1/4 panel and make it look like it backed thru the wall... Single now so I can get away with it, don't have to worry about no car parts in the house rule anymore(not that I listened to it before)

68shortfleet · 01-17-2007, 03:34 PM

I like it, Wife usually likes that stuff too, as long as it is GARAGE decoration.

kyull,you gotta be single.My wife would never allow that.Maybe a set of fins from a 57 in the den but even that would be a fight.

Well, I'm only 20 so no wife, but my girlfriend actually likes it. Plus it's my house.

Imacarguytoo · 01-17-2007, 07:13 PM

Man that is awesome. My wife doesnt mind car parts in the house. She knows the house payment isnt made if i dont sell them.

1969k10stepside · 01-17-2007, 07:16 PM

I like the fender.I might do the same thing now that Im inspired...Might just get a whole front clip to stick on the wall to look like a real one went through my shop...

hvychve · 01-17-2007, 07:21 PM

Darn good idea... I bought a fender at swap meet and its sittin in corner of garage , I just might get out sprayer and practice my painting skills, (which are very limited) and hang it on the wall, what about buying a tire and wheel and sticking it in the well, I too single and can get away with what ever I want ha.........

I thought about putting a wheel under it.

Rokcrln · 01-17-2007, 07:47 PM

Looks great! One day I plan on doing an entire short bed truck half. Bumper to bumper and hang it on my shop wall. It would be about 12-16" thick and be used as a paint cabnet and misc storage.
