Welcome to the Stovebolt wave

If you look for fenders remember, 1956 and 1957 Series 5000, 7000 and 9000 all share the same fenders.

It might be faster and cheaper to repair what you have.

The fenders will be a challenge. The steps and risers will be the first step, the rest of the truck is in great shape.
Thanks for the input.

55 fenders are one year only. The flare around the wheel well is smaller 56 and 57 are the same and have a wider flare. Cab flare is also different on 55 than 56 and 57.
