Jim Carter Antique Truck Parts(
www.oldchevytrucks.com), has both the repo. rubber fender, & step pads for '47-54 G.M. 2 ton COE's. There was indeed a local guy here in North Carolina, that I had lent a very nice pair of fender, & step pads to, for him to make molds from. He produced (
http://www.classiccoe.com/coestore.htm) several sets, from the molds, but became sick, & I haven't heard from him in awhile. He gave me a couple of sets, from the first run, & they were authentic. I also have sets from Jim Carter, & they are also authentic to the originals.
