Here are a couple of new shots of the truck, I have nothing new added recently just been saving cash up to get my 505 back from the maching shop.

dang that looks good! Did you fill the seams on the rear fenders?

cubicdollars · « **Reply #93 on:** January 01, 2009, 02:01:56 pm »

I used Aircraft panel sealer when I installed the rear fenders it seals out the water and dirt as well as filling in the seams. It's paintable as well as durable

That looks good. Looks like it's molded in.

Are they the original dually fenders?

The left is origanal and the right was an aftermarket that fit pretty nice.

Don't suppose you know what make the aftermarket one is?

sorry

I went to my local auto repair shop and he ordered it I'll stop down this week and see if he can give me a manufacture

How is your project comming?

Bit slow tbh....!

Stirling's very weak compared to the Dollar at the moment, so ordering large parts like dually fenders is very expensive...

Need to find a reputable make of dually fender too.

That is one awesome looking truck. Makes me wish we still had our 83 black GMC crew cab dually. You did a really great job on it. Love the details and the progress reports along the way.

Thank OldYeller

I love this truck it turned out exactly the way I planned, and I was actually pretty frugile when it came down to the parts.

I've got a few ?'s for you! first what size,brand tires are you running. second wher did you get the mud flaps and clear clearance lights. Last thing is where the aftermarket fender came from??? i desperately need a drivers side fender! Thanks in advance and awesome work. I hope my truck looks that good some day!?

Hey Busman

Well I'll get you the info on the tires, the lights are for a mid 90's dodge truck they are clear LED's I did have to make a template for the new light's and fill in the old holes, the mudflaps I ordered online through this site
http://www.pickupspecialties.com/dually_mud_flaps_GO.htm

and the fenders I ordered through a local autobody shop, might want to check with Chris (CaptKaos) he might be able to order them in.

hope this helps if you look at my webshots page I have the complete build

Thanks
Dan
