Anyone ever see a 55-57 front fender with a different looking 3100 emblem (looks sort of like a 54 emblem but not exactly), with the emblem in the CENTER of the fender (directly above the wheel opening), and the front lower edge short (not as low as a typical one)? Trying to identify what it is from... maybe a military truck, Mexico or Brazil truck, or (?) Thanks.

At first I thought maybe a Canadian truck fender, but checking a 1955-57 Canadian Chevy/GMC parts book, no match found. Could be something from another export market, but nothing I could find with a short web check.
Below is a comparison shot of your pic and a currently offered AMD repop 1955-57 pickup front fender advertisement picture. The repop seems to be similar with yours in the length at the bottom front of the fender, but very hard to do a thorough comparison without a physical side by side check.
Is your left side fender the same as this one???

GMC sold a "fleet" model with somewhat oddball front sheet metal- - - - -I wonder if there was a similar option for commercial buyers of Chevy pickups? Jerry
