Never heard of aluminum inner fenders. shruggy


The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it.

Inner fenders are a substantial part of the front clip. Need to think about snout bars or something to support that nose if you remove the OE stuff


If the results don't match the theory, change the theory.

Is the OP asking about the inner fender which is part of the unibody structure or the inserts that are in and behind the wheel? I’m thinking here referring about the inserts.

You mean splash shields? The shields that keep debris out between the fender and door?

Yo, OP, kindly explain what you're looking for.
Aluminum aprons ? Shields ?
Mopars didn't use aluminum for either, but race car aprons for a tube-chassis car would be a fabrication job.
If the aprons were cut away, bolt-on aluminum ones would also be a fabricated deal.
Some chassis companies may have a universal apron available.

Yes just couldn’t remember the proper nomenclature for them.

Someone did those pieces in lightweight material for the AH '68 cars. Not sure who. Google maybe?
