1948 Ford Panel truck info needed

I have a 48 Ford panel truck and need some help from you guys.The right rear section from the middle of the wheel well,up 6'' to the first body line and back all the way to the end of the lower panel is rusted or so badly welded with huge thick welds it would take me forever to get it right.
Would that same section of pick up truck rear fender be the same size,shape,bends as the panel truck that I could weld it up like a patch panel?
If that is not an option,does anybody know of a decent used one for sale?
Thanks

The pickup wheel opening is different than the panel truck, the curvature of entire panel is also different. I am sure I've see some replace.both sides with pickup pieces so they matched. Sorry I.can't be of more help.

I knew someone had used pickup parts. Check out gdub's gallery and posts.

Good luck.
