I am chasing some photos of the rear wheel tubs in the MT feature truck - The Chevy Luv.

If I remember rightly it runs chopper style fenders.

Any pics would be great

Thanks

yeah i think they are really cool. if i was going to run an open bed floor, i would definitely want to do something cool like that. i though about it on my truck at one point, but decided not to. it would be really cool to do a matching set in the front, but the price of chopper fenders is pretty high unless you have means to build your own.

i thought they were trailer fenders that he cut to shape the ends like that. kinda like they used to do on EVERY SINGLE chopper on OCC. if you look at that first photo the edge isnt perfect so they might have cut them with a plasma then cleaned it up with a grinder.

Yea those are just trailer fenders cut to that shape and attached to the axle. Notice there isn't a heavy crown to them. I doubt they are widened though since they are narrower than the tire still.
