Thanks, Guys for all the cool comments.
Jlaws,The rear fenders are from an old Bolens 800. I added a filler panel on the bottom so that I could bolt them to the axles.
PGHsteelworker, The rear rims are modiied. They are I think from an early Dodge Caravan 14x6. The bolt pattern was cut out and reversed then welded back in. This gives me a lot of positive offset.
So,dag1450,,,how many "changes" did you find?

Is it just me or did u move the front axle forward? You What......"cut out the bolt pattern and reversed it for more offset" Holy Cow!! That right there has my head hurting!

Dave, Yes I did move the axle forward. Yes, this project was somewhat "involved".

Man, I gotta click on "View unread posts" more often. I missed this one! Great job, the paint and the mods really work together and makes them look like their full sized brothers.
