OneMoreBolt | Happy To Be Done With These C2C Inner Fenders @OneMoreBolt | Uploaded July 2024 | Updated October 2024, 4 hours ago.
The adventure that has been less than enjoyable with inner fenders finally draws to an end. These Classic to Current Fabrications inner fenders have been just as much of an annoyance as the CPP inner fenders I did earlier this year. To be fair these were the cheapest inner fenders I could find so I'm not overly shocked that they didn't fit worth a crap. That just seems to be the way of things these days with cheap and expensive parts alike, stuff just isn't made with the kind of quality control it once was and the end user is just stuck having to work with what ever they get.
Fortunately for me I'm stubborn enough to stick with it and figure out how to make things work and that's exactly what I did with these.
Due to my lack of skill when it comes to welding, the work definitely could have been better but in the end it was good practice and the final product isn't total garbage. The only way to get better at doing anything is to put the time in and do it, practice practice practice. No doubt when/if the day comes that I have to make another set of crappy inner fenders work on one of these cars they will certainly come out better than these.
All that said, we are moving forward with this project. Next up will be wiring and plumbing, also things that aren't exactly fun and can be frustrating but hey, it's all part of the process and can't be nearly as annoying as doing the inner fenders.
If you want to see more about these fenders, here are the previous 2 videos. Starts with out of the box impression to the WTF, how are these so bad and what I did to make them work.
