needed some room for tires. so i stretched the rear wheel arches 4" towards the front. the front end will be stretched completely (hood, fenders, etc ) the same 4".
done all of this myself with some pretty good guidance from an excellent chassis builder.
testing a 32" x 14" wide on a 14" wide wheel as this is the size i will probably run when i learn to drive this thing.
both sides done and cut. only driver side reassembled.
putting 3/4" backing strip in so we have something to weld to. sheared all of these strips. and the complicated section at the body moulding area, i used factory material there and split it .
hand formed the filler plate.
as he tacks these spots, he pulls the body work out and then tacks it. to keep its shape and prevent warpage. its not completed yet but it is visually good for clearance. and this is the wheel/tire i will use for the street. 315/60-15 on a 12" wide wheel, aka 30 tall by 13 wide. these are my training wheels so to speak. and YES it will be titled and reg'd and streetable.
then a trial fit with the side skirts. gonna be sorta low there
