    I got annoyed that after a month and a half I still couldnt find a fender so I took the 45 oz hammer to the dented fender.......

    Well, the pic says it all! Atleast now I can drive it further than my street without having the cops bust my chops for open wheels and no headlight!:D

    I have an extra drivers side fender. Someone got over creative and tried to weld the side marker light hole shut but I don't think it would be to hard to fix. Fender has only a tiny bit of surface rust.

    I'd let it go for very cheap if you want to pay shipping. I'm never going to do anything with it... Gotta be better then what you got on there. ;)

    Not gonna make it to the round-up. And I already tried to have one shipped and it was about 100 bucks for shipping....crazy!

    I have a buddy checking out some parts today....hope there is a fender and hood in there someplace....if not, I dont mind driving it the way it is.
