I cut up my fenders since they were pretty junked, the lips were smashed and the lower areas are pretty rusted.

I also found out "regal lancer" fenders were drilled for trim after the fact...  the spacing was not "even", they were 10,9, 8 inches apart(the holes).  Like someone was just putting them in manually.


I think the standard fenders holes are punched on a press.

it was junk trust me.... the sheet metal was paper thin in places it was so badly rusted.

57-58 dodge fenders are not made of gold either. I picked up one for 150$ there are still some scrap sedans

here is another one if you need grab it, Bo has some also I think. I just bought a rust free 59 front clip off him He had to throw stuff out he is so low on space.
