Chrome fenders

[buckeye]

I ground the rusty fender mounts off my current project.
Is there a fender out there that clamps to the frame?? I don't have a welder and have already painted,so welding a bracket isn't a choice.
I put the cart in front of the horse and didn't think about fenders to keep the crap off the hottie (my wife) I am building it for.
Suggestions??

cant ya just drill some holes and put the fenders on with a bracket without welding :shrug:

 

[buckeye]

No drilling this old frame. Thanks though.

What kinda craps on the payment you baby your bikes on?
Only ones i've ever seen bolted on the forks are rupps but what do i know.
Most i've seen or have are attached to the frame. Might be able to make some sort of bracket like the rupps and attach to the fender you are using

BUCK,

YOU CAN JUST BUY THE BRACKETS AND MOUNT YOUR FENDER TO IT.
MIGHT WORK FOR YA. NOT MUCH TO THEM. MIGHT BE ABLE TO MAKE SOMETHING

Maybe something like this!

Wouldn't I need to bend it to conform to the fork?
Thanks for thinking of it.
I am looking for something like jmbrewton posted. See the liitle half round on the front fender? That's what I am thinking.

 

[buckeye]

Daah,thanks Andrew. Those are what I am thinking. And then fender with same type of curve. Maybe I am being unrealistic??

if you want something like what jbrewton posted go to homedepot and buy some conduit pipe holders and some angle iron and rivit them together. something simple and not going to cost you alot.might be worth trying

buck i'll dig around .i may had a old rupp fender laying around.you could use the bracket but the fender would be for a 10" wheel

 

[buckeye]

I thank you.Yoop
That's a good idea Rick.

My Rupp Continental use the same setup as the Hustler and they are 6" tires.

How's the new knee mav?

Still a little sore but better. First 2 weeks were rough. I questioned myself at first but that arthritis ache is no longer there. Trying to build it back up. Should be fine. Headed back to work next Monday. I am bored stiff after 8 weeks of being at home. Weather is getting nice enough to work in my garage again. Got to get back to doing some mini work. Again, thanks for your help.
