Project Blue

That deepwater pearl put a smile on my face every time I looked at it! I hope it goes to a good home and it made me seriously consider changing over to white wheels on mine because they looked so good.
 
I saw that on FB an hour ago. Some of the comments that people have made are comical to me.
 
my opinion and my guess is, you cannot build an exact duplicate for 100,....unless you have some skills and can do all of the work yourself.
and then it would still be close to 70 in my guess, ask me how I know......

Tip, cut before painting... need tub on frame to locate fenders and coil tower interference... take a little off at a time...
 
Tip, cut before painting... need tub on frame to locate fenders and coil tower interference... take a little off at a time...

Thanks. I'm good on all those except the before painting tip - but, my fender wells are lizard skin sprayed inside and out. So, it shouldn't be too much of an issue.

I mounted a fender loosely (so it sort of 'hinges' on the bolts) and have cut away enough to clear the coil tower and rotate the fender well inward up against the next obstacle (the shock tower). The next step is cutting for the shock tower... ideally, I'd like to have it fit over the outer vertical lip and clear the horizontal top of the tower. Wish me luck!
