I intend to use standard pickup rear fenders on my 'burb,
They are obviously too wide and need to be trimmed as well as new mounting holes drilled.
I have not permanently mounted mine yet,but after a quick trial fit, the standard pickup fender looks like it would go on nice and easy.
And, if you happen to want more clearance for wider tires, this can be allowed for by where you drill the mounting holes.
Trial fit an ad 1/2 ton fender and see what you think!
Good luck.

I will have to re work the running boards to fit the extra width.
The panel is a 37.
For some reason I can't get a picture to post from Photo Bucket I'll work on it

I found a dozen or so posts about a guy named Ray Stanley at wheelwright restoration. Everybody said good things. Check out his web site to see an sure enough he had a sash panel picture that was for my year panel. Have not price him out yet.
