Looking for ref pic of driver inner fender - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I'm slowly taking apart the front end of my 70 C10. The driver fender around the steering brace is a bit wrinkled. The steering brace fits on, and it fits into the fender in general, but I figured I'd at least bend it back into place since I'm going to paint it. And is the steering brace supposed to be that bent? If someone has a fender out, can you take a couple close ups of these same spots?

I'm pretty sure mine is completely straight.

I would take a picture but I'm not where it is. But it's off the truck because I just blasted it to prep for paint.

Ha, I thought the bend in my brace was normal... I know the front of my truck has been hit and it makes me worry if I change bend stuff too far into shape, it won't go back together.

I think the bend is normal, mine looks like yours.
