With trailer fenders, I think it would be legal. Sounds Like you are trying to get the same look as the early Willys trucks. Maybe you can get someone to photoshop a pic for you.

Re: 84 C10 floating Fenders

there would'nt be any issue's with legality, but I think the truck is much to big and trailer fender's would get lost in the bed side's.
mabey if the truck was really low with wide tire's it might look alright.
