fender

I need a new LH fender. I can buy one off Ebay for $275 from Classic Auto Parts and $53 shipping. Has anyone bought body parts from this company? Should I spend $350 plus shipping and get it from Dennis Carpenter?

Please, when asking questions, list all the pertinent info. Year, series of truck and etc. Also list where you live, because shipping charges vary.

Your "About Me" profile says 1966 F100: Same R/L fenders: 1961/66 F100/250 2WD, 1966 F100 4WD: Has a 36" opening radius.

Classic Auto Parts (formerly Obsolete Ford Parts of Oklahoma City). LMC located in Lenexa KS, Carpenter in Concord NC

The same made in China repro fenders are sold by all the repop sellers. IMO, look for an original 'genuine' Ford fender.

You're right ND , sorry for not including the info. It is a '66 F100 4x4 with 36" opening. The truck is near Minneapolis MN. I have a fender but my body guy said by the time he is done patching all the rust holes I would be better off buying a new one. I have been told to stay away from the Chinese repos. The truck will not be a show queen, just a daily driver, I hope.

In general I agree that repops are problematical but I bought a DC new fender out of necessity and it fits and looks great....
