I rebuilt the steering box in my truck ('53 3100) and while I was at it I pulled the fender and everything off that side to repair/replace the fender. I decided to go with new fender, as I don't have time or equipment to do the repairs right now. The old one isn't completely ruined, just a couple of small cracks and a really good bend in it. Would it be worth saving or should I just toss it?
