    Just got back from the dentist. (exam only).
    We might be able to use a harbor fright one. I'll do some research but until then, send me the length and width of the rectangle section. I assume you're doing boxes on both sides?

    Yeah, kinda. Wanting to make them my fender wells. Flat at top and like 45* on either side (I could do this with sheet instead of a whole box and just use the boxes in front and rear of the tire.

    I realllly want to get back to building on this.

    I’ll pick some metal up in a few days and start designing boxes for the underside and get some of those knocked out. Also, adding a spare tire rack and other odds.
