67 Front Fender Lip

[Bill H.]

I think the rolled lip on my front fender wheel well opening is incorrect. This pic is from a friend's 67 restomod but possibly aftermarket fiberglass. Does it look correct? Or if someone could post a pic of their 67, it would help. Thanks.

Others will chime in but feel the pic reveals aftermarket glass. The lip appears too wide (at it's widest) based on other likekind original fender lips.

I agree. Looks like an aftermarket 1 piece front end. Original cars have a rubber seal across the top of the vertical panel shown in the above pic.

Thanks guys, but my concern is the lip on the front edge of the wheel well opening. My lip ends half way in the front, curved part and has no lip the rest of the way own to the turn signal housing. I'd love to see a pic of a correct one.

The dog leg bonding strip makes up the lip and extends to the bottom.

This may help a little more (note its an original 64, but should be the same)

Here's a shot of that flange on my '67.

Excellent, thank you John. I orders the bonding strips. Thankfully, this will be the last of the fiberglass work on the car.
