    I was thinking the exact same thing when he posted the first set of images. It seems like all the others example posted were within the fender.

      • I was talking about the other cars posted as examples for paint. Poorly worded, my apologies.

        • Might have used a SN+ rear?

          • Its actually a 8.8 out of a Lincoln MkVii. It might be a little wide, but I do still have some adjusting I need to do on the 3 link. The rest is a combination of the fat sidewall of the billboards, and the way the Factory five body tapers in at the rear wheels. The silver car in the pic is an actual shelby with different shaped fenders, and was pin drive, which has a shorter inset. Im not worried about a "good bump", this suspension is super super stiff stiff, but if it does become an issue, I'll have the rearend cut down to the original shelby "pin drive" width. Or when I get some extra cash, and nothing else to focus on with it, I'll go ahead and have it shortened. I haven't been 100% happy with that anyways.

            As far as the 50 shoebox, its a buddy of mines. He's still tossing around ideas as far as plans go.

            • As you can see, a lot of it is the fender contour on the rear of the fender.

                      When and where? I made a drive yesterday from Princeton all the way out to Wills Point. Kinda zig zagged all the way out there hitting all back roads. Made the round trip with no problems.

                        Got some personal stuff coming up next week. Maybe first week of June?

                        I could bring the Nikon and get some good shots out on the Bluebonnet Trails in Ennis?

                        There are some twisties out there that would probably do well.
