the last picture of it looks TITS, but IMO I would rotate it about 2-3 inches more forward

Last picture is perfect IMO. Slightly rotated forward, not too much.

you need to trim the sides down before deciding on the placement. its going to make the fender look longer once its trimmed down. looks way to 50's stepside right now.

Just my two cents but the fender hides to much of your nice work. Maybe after you've trimmed the sides I'll see where you're going. And I noticed something strange in one picture. The tag bracket in the middle where weld is the heat made the image of a eye. Maybe I just need some sleep :S

the placement onthe last pic looks awesome. with prettymuch all of the sides gone it will be good

Less is sometimes more, in this case I would just put a small one on it.

i love old school style bikes, its turning out great man. cant wait to see this thing when all done.

the fender placement and amount of fender you wanna put on there realy stands out on a bike. i would draw something up on paper just to get an idea of what your looking for before commiting to anything first.
how about the front.. you gonna put a fender on at all?

Look what I've got!

Attachment 19156

Her name is Jocelyn, and she was born at 9:00 a.m. Sunday morning, and she's perfect! She was a big girl at 8lbs 13oz.

For those wondering, epidurals are the greatest thing ever invented. My wife is doing great and we just got to come home from the hospital.

Watching her birth was the craziest thing I've ever seen.

More updates to come on the bike, but just had to show her off :)
