But this has got me thinking...

I could buy these fiberglass quarter panels for $500:

Then cut out the wheel well and re-fiberglass the 80-86 wheel arch :thumbup

I still think getting a rust free tub from the desert states would be better

That opening is already bigger then usual. At 500 bucks I would leave it like it is.

Fireguy are you saying you would buy these glass panels, then cut the wheel well section out then fiberglass it to yours??? It that is correct, why? Do as 81bronk36 said. Buy them and install them on yours. Don't cut them. That's alot of money just for some wheel wells when I am pretty sure you can the those weld in ones from LMC, JC Whittney, etc, etc..

Me and my cousin chopped the wheel wells out of an 87 long box F-150 and welded them into the 81 bronco tub .... made for an interesting look. unfortunately they are about the only good sections left on the rear of the tub :(
