Started off by building the fenders in steel...since used parts are either mega $$ or rusty I'd rather have new steel

Personally I hate those chrysler side marker lights. Makes the cars look like 18 wheelers. One of the worst things mopar ever done to the bodys. But more than likely it had something to do with insurance regulations. Who knows the reason why but I can tell you that a piece of .22ga sheet metal and a mig cures the problem. About an hour per marker.

Blame the goverment for that change in 72 and also the bumper guards having to have the rubber on them is another one of their ideas...someone how that got lost on todays cars.

I would like to see 71 side marker lights on these bodies.
