LS6 Chevelle inner fenders

[mrrec]

Rick, I assume you use the term "fiber" because that is in some Chev literature you have (I'm sure Chev thought fiber sounded better than plastic). The plastic inner fenders are ABS injection molded plastic (at least the ones marked "made in Canada" on my Baltimore LS6). They do have a fiberous quality to them that is evident upon cutting. This was likely a very short strand material that was mixed with the ABS.

My LH had the requisite trouble light hole (you know, lay the trouble light on the inner fender - oops, they're plastic and I've melted a hole in 'em!). I spent many hours cutting a patch out of another part and plastic welding it in with ABS rod - looked pretty good for a year or so, now it's cracked. Darn.
