Frickin amazing work! I've loved following along!

One question, Why leave the stock inner fenders? They seem like about the only thing left and just made the headers that much more difficult? Or maybe I should say that much more amazing!

Funny you mention that we are actually in process of eliminating them but its like any project they get a life of there own.I just scrapped the original gas tanks because I didn't think they went with curvy metal work in the trunk.

That's some serious whittling!

Okay ton of work of the series of these pictures
Here's some shots of the process of widening the tail and bumper we wanted the lights to be inn the same position they were originally so we added to the center.And filled the bumper bolts added studs so they mount from the back side then chopped the heck out of two bumpers two get one

We decided we did not like the way the factory bolt on tail pieces looked so we decided to make our own from scratch and graft them into the quarters so they are one piece for a really slick look
