'47~ '54 Fenders Putting your location in helps generate more responses . They're out there , I occasionally see dent free ones ,kinda pricy though , $200 is too much for just an AD rear fender IMO . If you're out of the City , look for old home made trailers from pickup beds ~ they're typically *very* cheap and once you've peeled off the good fender(s) you can put some old tires that hold air and re-wire the taillights and sell it again for $50 ~ $100.....
Love it! I love your way of thinking, Nate! I always keep an eye out for just such a trailer. I'll be needing the whole bed one of these days. I hope Tom's Trucks in Miami, Oklahoma is still open. I know he had LOTS of used fenders, bed sides and gates in good condition. Can't wait~
Old Trailers I passed a Task Force trailer full of cordwood to-day and it had " $100 " spray painted on the fender , I was wondering if that was for the whole trailer full of wood or maybe the trailer was for sale.... I stupidly passed up a battered but complete '49 pickup bed trailer with an electric dump hoist and hand brake for $75 a number of years ago.... Still kicking myself for that one . Back when I was doing Salvage - Reconstruct , I often bought junkers or wrecks just for one part ,then I'd keep it around and use the various hard wares and misc. parts on other jobs until it was bare .
