My "47 3100 was bought w/o running boards. The attaching holes in the front of the rear fender were filled w/ bondo. The metal reinforcing brace/plate seems to have been riveted to the front of the fender and are pretty well rusted and eventually will be removed/replaced. Plate was obviously to reinforce the fender/R.B. connection. Short of making a replacement myself, does anyone know of a supplier for these? I can't find one in any of my catalogs. Thanks.
