Hatches are like women...if you give them the attention they deserve, they'll never let you down.

People generally have a fear of what they don't understand...hatch construction isn't complicated, if you take the time to understand it...

Riding a bike for the first time was tough, as was giving your first girl a kiss. :oops:

Once over that initial fear, things move along pretty well.

:ok:

Classic Finn: try not to worry too much. I too feared the hatch, so one day I started on it and within 3 hrs it was DONE. Not as bad as one would expect..

[quote="mikeschn"]Finn,

The profile looks nice... but I'm still waiting to see a fender on that profile...

Do you want me to take my fender off, and trace it on paper, and mail it to you?

Okay Mike
Hows this?

Thats with the Kit 11 inch wide Fenders..
Classic Finn :thinking:

Also cant figure out the space for the Sauna :QM

The FINN - TASTIC FAN is still missing off it... :lol:

K.I.S.S. you say..Yup keep it real simple. The back is a 60" radius that goes to a point in the rear. Didn't want to strain the my brain to hard on the first tear by adding a radius under cut at the bottom.

Seems like I will stray from the k.i.s.s. when I do the next one. :twisted:

by **Classic Finn** » Sat Jan 07, 2006 9:00 pm

Hmmmm

Kit fenders
Smoothies
Coker Wide Whitewall Tires
Finntastic Fan

- Finally
here waiting to be mounted to The Coker Classics :twisted:

The guys here say it would look good with the Coker Whitewalls - What do you think?

by **Hardin Valley Magic** » Sat Jan 07, 2006 9:03 pm

AAAAAHHHH yes Coker white walls. That would look really good. especially the WIDE white walls.

We do have an old friend of the family that is a Coker Tire Dealer
and he just received a Container of Different Tires from Coker....

He does have them in stock as well... so I think that will be the choice..
we wanted to get opinions on it 1st with the Kit fenders though.. Wasnt sure....

I may have the rims and tires on this coming week if all goes well...Thats
what we had in mind also is the wide whitewalls

These are the rims we would have purchased but couldnt find
them... Cragar Truspoke...shucks...

Or ignore them or not pay enough attention to them...they will hit you over the head.
