Lemme get this straight: the axles aren't going to be centered (fore/aft) in the wheel well/fender openings, and you're going to hide this with fender skirts? How far aft will things be?
PS: it's great to see a thread started when the project is this far along already. It's like bingeing on a TV/cable series on Netflix all at once, instead of waiting for a new episode each week.
