Re: 59 viking lower fender reconstruct
 

the front fender lower inner brace is available for the pick ups for about $30. the cabs are the same, so the profile would be the same where the fender and the cab meet. maybe you could make one of those brackets work on the back side of your fender so you could support the fender to the cab mount area. then fab up or buy a lower rear fender patch for a pick up and use what you need to fit your fatty fenders.
