Rear Fender patch panel

I know this is a long shot but........
Has anyone seen a patch panel avialable for the rears of the rear fenders.

I need about 3"-4" of the back of the rear fenders..

Thats great,
I knew they had the fronts of the rear fender but I never seen the rears of the rear fender.

On the subject of patch panels . Does anyone have a wasted left rear fender from a '51 or '52 that I could acquire a section for a patch panel . Need a section mid way up on the left rear edge where it bolts to the bed . Thanks, Denny

Midfifty only has the patch for the lower front of rear fender, I need the lower rear of the rear fender

Anyone have one or two donner fenders that they may be will to part with the bottom rear sections, the pass side is the worst, but i'd really like to replace both.

thanks

I've got the same problem. I'm just going to end up making my own patches. My fenders are horrible. They are rusted out all over, front back top and bottom. And the driver side one has the spare tire dip I need to fill in.

Looks like the route I'm going to go as well, I have the patches for the front of the fender, and I tried to make a patch for the rear. My frist attemp was a complete failure at best. But I guess keep I'll keep trying.
Sounds like mine are a little better than yours, no holes on tops

I can,t beleive they don't make a patch panel for the bottom rears like they do for the fronts

My came off a truck that sat in a field for over 30 years in Minnesota so they are pretty rusty and thin in spots. They don't look horrible from a mile away though. The mounting flanges are mostly rusted away. I'm going to be buying a shrinker/stretcher set sometime over the winter. This will help with making patches for a panel with compound curves.
