Steve,
Here's a thread with a little more info: http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?sho...206988&st=0 Haven't done that type of flare myself, but seen pictures the fender is pie-cut and sections welded back in. |

Similar to Tom’s @Olympic_914 (Some reason my tag of Tom will not work…operator error (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) )
http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?sho...=349948&hl= Good write up in Panorama on his build and the subtle rear flares. |

Many years ago John Kelly fashioned a few sets of steel flares for enthusiasts. I purchased one of those sets. Chris Foley and/or Ed Morrow did the prep and welding.

Similar to Tom’s @Olympic_914 (Some reason my tag of Tom will not work…operator error (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) ) Won't work if there is a space in the name @mepstein - works @mark epstein - doesn't work |
