Flaring Fenders

vetteeatr · 11-06-2002, 12:22 AM

Just realized i wouldnt actaully have to change the width of my whole rear end if i could just make the body wider so how do you flare fenders on a early 60's model?

Whats the max amount you can actually flare without looking stupid?
Or woudl be jsut be wiser to mold some flares for it and weld them on?

I personally want to put 1 1/2" fender flares front and rear on my '66, but I've found that you can only get 1 1/2" for the front and the rear doesn't have 1 1/2" except they do have 2 1/4" 3 1/2" and 4" fender flares.

I don't think flares look right if they are bigger than 1 1/2"
