Making DIY Steel Fender Flares for the Datsun 280

I wanted to buy fender flares for my Datsun however the wheels and tires on the car are too wide to fit any over the shelf flares so I decided to Fabricate my own 8 inch fender flares out of Steel. It was such a painstaking but fun process and the end product I think looks golden.

large diameter wheels are going to change your final drive ratio. Bigger is better traction but way slower take off. I used to put smaller diameter tires on my camaro to get better take offs easily when I was a kiddo.

For reference you should stitch weld that. Not just a bunch of tacks on it.

You should have (if you haven't, I know this vid is older) put the return, that flat vertical bit around the wheel. It would make the flare stronger, prevent flex and cracking the filler.

Love fender flares, but I've been wondering what the difference is between them and wide body kits.
