Unsure about the correct location of my fenders. Truck has been apart a long time. Hope I can ask this correctly. On a 1949 chevy 3100
Is the distance from the door jam to the front fender the same on the right side as the left side? Mine are not the same.
And is there a gap between the running boards and the front fenders?
I can't remember to save my life.

Yes, the side measurements should match and there is a gap between the running boards and front fender. Not much though.
Just a guess: 1/8th inch?
