Denny, I should have stated that my rear fenders are off the 52panel. They bolt from the "top" of the fender under the side of the body. BUT yes, it did have "anti-squeak" between the fender and the body. I am 99.99%....well, make that 100% sure this one is original. Since the top of my fender is "flat" the welt looks like a flat piece of the roofing stuff layed down on it.
I can still take a picture of the one fender as I have not "molested" it yet. It will be a day or two though before I can take and get it loaded up to the photobucket if anyone wants to see it. I'll also take one anyway for my photo album and for "historical data".
There is a couple other "odd" things I found on my panel and have ask weeds if his surburban was the same way. In particular is the nails driven through the wood blocks into metal to hold the blocks in place under the body till it was set on the chassis. I will be taking pics of those to.
"Ain't this stuff just interesting"....yeah it is!!!

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.
I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you smile
