As far as I know none are being produced as reproduction items, other than the fiberglass versions. There are or were some used ones listed for bid on eBay within the last week or so. | | | | | Joined: Jan 2017 Posts: 22 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Jan 2017 Posts: 22 | | | | | | Joined: Jul 2008 Posts: 1,321 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jul 2008 Posts: 1,321 | There is a pair on Ebay now!

At the time I couldn't find rears. If you go with fiberglass R&R Fiberglass gave me the best deal.

I don't want fiberglass, and I've got a couple fenders that are almost not worth the effort of patching. But you'd be missing out on all the fun. I patched up both my AD rear fenders, including free forming a 6" x 12" patch panel for the rear portion that was rusted away, the mounting flanges, and a few other spots. Sometimes it's just what you have to do.

I can do small patches, but the right rear will require re-doing almost the entire back half of the fender. I'm not sure I can form the metal into the original shape. | | | | | Joined: Jan 2013 Posts: 45 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Jan 2013 Posts: 45 | Andy, I order my rear fender patches from a guy named Ray at [email protected] my rear fender need a lot of work including the rear of the fender which was gone, but he had all the stuff I need to fix them. He also has a lot of the patches for other area of the 41 - 46 truck send him a email and if you have a pictures of the fender showing all the bad area he can help. Good Luck Jerry
My first prewar and it will not be my last. Done with the 40 for my best friend. Got a 46 (year I was born) to build for me.
