Here are some photos of my repop aprons, which seem to be pretty accurate reproductions of the originals. That apron to fender bracket frequently breaks - Mine were broken off because the bed mounts had pretty much given up, making the fenders drop a bit. My original aprons are long gone to the scrap heap as they had holes thru them below the stake pockets. The offset of the brackets is toward the outside of the truck. The angle of the bend probably doesn't make a lot of difference, with the more critical dimension being the distance of the bolt hole from the rear of the apron. Might work well to bolt the bracket to the fender and THEN tack the bracket to the apron after it's attached to the running board.
