For all who have the Art Decco Series '41 through early '47. Do your 1/2 & 3/4 ton PU's have rear fender braces?? The ones I'm referring to attach to the rear fender area near the back of wheel opening, about a foot or so up from the bottom of the fender. On the other end I think they attach either to the frame or, in the case of my 3/4 ton, look like they could have been attach to brackets on the ends 4th bed cross member. Are these original equipment or something added by lead footed farmers to keep the fenders from flapping during a high speed run (45mph) across the corn field ??
I have seen a few photos with what appears to be bolt heads where I described on the outside of the rear fender. So my second question is if they are supposed to be there were they welded or bolted at the fenders??
Now the important part....Does anyone have a photo, drawing or sketch?? Or better yet a set to sell. Or maybe one that is in bad shape but could be copied??
