I think I finally have four of them that I can make two really nice ones out of. I do have a question though.
I've had a total of five (three passenger side and two driver's side) of these fenders and of the five, two of them had a metal rod inserted into the bead on the inside of the wheel well. Can anybody tell me if this was something that someone added as reinforcement over the years or if they all had this originally and it just commonly fell out?
Inquiring minds want to know....

Also my 40 GMC does not have these rods
