62 Front Fender Match
Could someone please tell me what years would be a match for my '62 F100's front fenders. From a picture I saw, it doesn't look like a '61 is the same. The '61 picture doesn't show the extra curve that follows the wheel opening like on my '62.
Thanks

i agree with Mike G, i bit of caution is needed here as there are two different kinds of fenders for these years. they are all interchangable but there is a difference in that the 4Wd and some of the f250's had widder fenders at the bottom. check the lower rear of the fender, this is where the difference is. i call it the 10 or 4 inch. . that's not the actual differerence but it's fairly close. bolting patteren is all the same. i put the 4 in. spacing on my 66CC because it takes out some of the boxy look . just my preference.Dutch

The main difference between the round inner-fendered trucks and the more rectangular ones is that the outer fenders on the 65-66's have 3 holes on the sides behind the wheels for emblem mounting, and the rubber bumpers for the hood are a different mounting and shape. Pretty small obstacles to overcome, really, so they are commonly known as interchangable.
