Does anybody have pics of old chevy fiberglass fenders 73-87. NOT INTERESTED IN PICS OF UPDATE KITS. Just original body style, including drop down hoods,etc.Preferably not huge flair like NEWHANS red chevy. And if you have any good pics, also, where the fenders/hoods can be purchased. The few pics on Autofabs site of their drop down hood are pretty small and hard to get a good look at. Thanks for your help.

John, Glassworks doesn't have any fenders listed for the 73-87 models and I've noticed that they are not the conversion fenders, though you do have the 88-on grill on it. Did ya fab it all up to make it work?

The drop center hoods I've seen only work on the earlier front clip and not the late clip like JB's. There is a place in Florida that makes a bunch of glass body parts and they have the drop center hoods. Never seen one, don't know about quality.

Hannemann makes the fenders for the early Chevy trucks;

They also show a hood, but no bedsides. Glassworks shows the bedsides, just no picture.

Hey BR, whos fenders are on the Red Blazer at the top? I like Newhan's bedsides (autofab) but the fronts are tapered w/ the hood to the point where the hood is maybe a half " tall at the grill, don't really like the look....let me know cause I wanna buy glass for my crew cab SOON!

A place in florida is called US Body Source. (usbodysource.com)
They call them step down hoods. Almost 400 bucks.

What year was that truck built? I grew up in redlands and I remember seeing a truck alot like that around 1980. I guess that it must have been Fledcamps, but i dont know. I was 10 then and it was to coolest thing that I ever seen.
