Smile Repro Fenders

Hi all, just curious to know if anyone has had a go at fitting a set of the repro fenders for a 55-57. My project has stalled (until they turn up shortly) and should be back underway soon.

David

I'm a little confused at the question.
Are you looking for the fenders themselves? Or tips on fitment from those who have done this?

Re: Repro Fenders

My 59 GMC has a set of the steel reproduction front fenders on it and the quality was excellent. They fit well, and look great.

My truck is a GMC and the fenders have the emblem holes for a Chev so the holes had to be welded shut and GMC holes drilled. They also came with a factory antenae hole.

If you are paying a bodyman it is cheaper to buy these reproduction ones than fix up an old rusyt set.
