Since I used the body from the car hauler kit  in creating a USA-1 monster truck I have went with the cab from the ‘84 GMC Desserter kit and will convert from a tri-axle to only a two axle.

I had to cut off the inner fenders off the frame of the GMC and glue them to the cab.

I moved the extra axle half the distance towards the molded in axle.

using these transformer halves to use as a fender flare

Traced the curve then cut and filled for the flare. Pics show original look and new look.

A look of how the flare will be placed in.
