I document this amateur's installation of smooth inner fenders, made by Scott Rod Fabrications, in my 1991 Fox-body Mustang.

Good job. I am a garage DIYer too.

Great job brother! I'm day dreaming about doing this on Project Stang while I got the motor out. Been wanting an excuse to learn to weld. What kind of welder do you have?

Thanks, man! I take a lot of pride in my work and doing as much myself as possible. I couple years ago and got a Millermatic 210.

I'd say any welder, though, is a game changer. Before I had my own welder, my son borrowed a Harbor Freight or Northern Tool welder and it got the job done.

So you do have to cut out . I tried just over lapping and it’s not wanting to go at all even trimming a bit

I know there are others that didn't trim out the old inner fenders and just overlapped the new one on...if that's what you are asking. I chose to not overlap, as I was concerned about rust starting between layers, in the future. That's also why I used other sheet metal so that there isn't open gaps between layers, for road grime, dirt, gravel to get caught and piled up.

I just found your video here, great work. I have a mint '89 hatchback LX and the time has come to ProStreet her. The entire body was disassembled in 2005 and then put into storage so I have no rusted panels to worry about. My question is - would the inner fender black splash shields cover up your back side work anyway?

@puzzlefox5.076 Жыл бұрын

They would...but not going to run the inner fender liners. I don't think they will work with what I have planned. But, with my thinking, I would still like knowing how it looks behind the fender liners, even if you can't see it.

Good luck with your build!

Since I am not a welder nor know anyone that would travel to my house. Do you know if 2 part epoxy would hold these panels ?

@puzzlefox5.076 Жыл бұрын

I'm not sure...but possibly. I know other people have riveted them in, too.

@@puzzlefox5.076 I have seen the riveted look. Not a fan. Maybe I can learn how to weld with a cheap harbor freight welder. But there are so many styles of welding I wouldn’t know where to start. As you stated it’s just a few tack welds to keep them in place.

@@mrprfct7069 I just did tack welds on the back side. On the engine bay side, I did do full length welds and sanded them down. May be overkill. Tack welds and body filler might do the job, too.
