Franken Fender

Had a rust free 69 fender that was smashed badly in front, and a very rusty 71 that was good on top. So I drilled out the spot welds on both fenders, cut them apart, and welded them together. I think this might work!

Re: Franken Fender

The 2 pieces fit together very well, some of the spot welds were even in the same place. I clamped them together, then cut them both at the same time. I put a straight edge on the weld, and it seems to have pulled in a little, so some bondo ought to fix it up!
