Okay so I need two 48-50 1/2 ton right rear fenders. I need one for my truck and my grandpa needs one for his. Any help would be great!

it would be easier to start with two front fenders and build a truck around it.

(well, duh to me, thought it said they need front fenders and i was ready with my witty comment.)

Probably be easier to get fiberglass rear fenders. The rear are much easier to install than the front.

Mac's antique auto parts has newly made ones for $500 each (ouch), plus shipping, probably find them cheaper else where, no idea of the quality, but least its an option

Jordan - I didn't think you'd be happy with glass. I'm not one that would have what you're after, but would suggest getting ahold of Rod Kruithoff up in Michigan to see if he has any. I know that Chuck got a set of NOS 48-50s from him a while back, so you might see if Chuck would part with them if he still has them. If you need contact info on Rod please do me a p.m. Another thought, Iola is coming up in July so you might think about spending a few days up there. Stu

Jordan, why would you want a 48 - 50 fender for your 52? I have two steel fenders in good shape for a '51-'52 or straight-side 50.

Hope to see you there. Rod Kruithoff, for a lot of years, has set up in BJ22-BJ25. That's right inside Gate #1 coming from the campground. But he told me last year that it might be his last. He's not a young man anymore. He has a pretty good inventory of stuff, though, so might be a source worth contacting. Stu

A '51 would use the flat-side fenders like a '52. '49 would have the inset fenders.
