When I first accessed my truck (55 2nd Series), I thought I would have to replace the front right, and left rear fenders. I've since decided to do patch panels where possible, but cannot find one for the rear fender. Rust has eaten through the lower front area of the left rear fender. I've spent hours searching, and find nothing. Anybody got a clue where to find? Woody
Woody,I Don't Know Of Anybody Who Makes The Front Half Of the Stepside Fender, But I Will Admit I Never Had To Look as My Fenders are In Decent Shape,But I Have Seen Ones Rusted Out at The Front Lip Just Above The Back Of the Step,That Area Is Pretty Much a Flat Radius and Would Think a Patch Panel Could Be Made For it and Tac welded and Hammer and Dollied Into It to Work! How Much Rust is There,ie; inchs up and around the Fender,Can You Post Pic's? Allen
Thanks for the tips guys. I'll post some pics when the rain lets up. I don't want that to stop anytime soon. We've been in a pretty serious drout lately here in Texas. Gonna get it moved into the garage tomorrow, and then look out.
Sounds like a plan. Have to bring back my high school abilities. I haven't fabricated in years, and I don't understand why, cuz it was so gratifying when I succeeded. Thanks for the tips. Woody

I agree with Kabwe. Its an easy fix.It took me a couple hours per fender with no problems. Good luck Bobby
