Yes, or I've seen them cut a slit lengthwise in front of the windshield on top of the cowl.

I see plenty of rods in CA without fenders. My bro in law has a fenderless 29 A and his neighbor has a fenderless RPU.

Yes the piece I cut out of the door in the front was welded back in the top of the door frame to lengthen it.

You can also tilt the "A" pillar of the cab back and the "A' pillar of the roof...
