Did you have to reconstruct your outer wheel housing? How did you do it if you don't mind sharing? Looks good!

you can maybe see on last pic the flare not there I felt I had to bondo them in I took a lot of pics so if I sell it I can show what has bondo .I have never done any of this before so welding the pieces in was good .I didn't think I could repair that any other way

Love these cars. My dad has many stories of a yellow 66' that he used to have with a 383, 4 speed,power windows and had the little dove tail NASCAR spoiler. I would love to find another one for him someday.
