Firstly 2 statements I would like conformation on


All 1953 / 1985 utiline truck bodies use the same rear fender ?

There are no reproduction METAL fenders being produced ?


Can some please confirm the width how wide these fenders are.
Eg. From where they bolt /weld to truck bed to lip of fender.
Also (I inderstand depending on wheels) but how much of the wheel is set back in fender.


Thanks in advance

Will

Try http://www.horkeyswoodandparts.com/ or http://www.vintagepowerwagons.com/

Rear fenders and some other bits same to 1984/5 when stepside discontinued.

Thanks gents really surprised there are not many utiline
(step side (ford name ) around.

Thanks for the links seems no one is making aftermarket steel rear fenders

ford and chevy there is loads of stuff ..........................

Have got a rusty set on route just wanted to start mocking up sides etc.

many thanks

I don't think they will look that good on your Charger, even if they do allow for wider wheels on the back...

...What manic scheme and project have you now started???
