Guys with no front inner fenderwells.. Need pics

I'm planing on removing my front inner fender wells and making a new radiator support for my 63. I mainly use it for drag racing so my supports need to be light. I would love to see pics of how others have done it. I have some ideas in my head, but there might be a better way

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the pics. Obviously your fender is supported by the bolt bellow the cowel cap and the radiator suport. How solid is it? Do you think it would have any issue at 130mph?

Sorry, it's not my truck. It is someone on the board though. Dino maybe.

Re: Guys with no front inner fenderwells.. Need pics

I am witness to the fact that the front end is solid, even when Dino is doing smoky burnouts in front of his house.

Dino that porter/nascar front end is a thing of beauty! By far my favorite under hood truck shot.

If you get a chance PM me the type of primmer you have on that truck.

Re: Guys with no front inner fenderwells.. Need pics

How do you guys without inner fenders keep from trashing the engine compartment? I'd think one rain storm or mud puddle and you'd be spending a week trying to get everything cleaned up.

I will agree that it doesn't rain much down there, but when it rains...

The pic of the twin-turbo engine is from a unibody Ford F100, not a C10... It puts out nearly 1000hp from what I've read about it.

Re: Guys with no front inner fenderwells.. Need pics

I just picked up a set of inner fenders today to replace mine that somebody cut to leave only the portion that the hinges and fenders mount on.
