History 1928-1929 FORD SEDAN REAR FENDER QUESTION

Hello, I could ask this on the Ford Barn, but can't spent the time logging on. Question, will a 28-29 Fordor and Tudor use the same rear fender or do they differ some how? Thanks. Bob

 

same fenders

except some are shaped different on the rear edge, some are rounded / some are squared off


also the ones on 4 doors have 2 extra holes punched for the rear apron to bolt

and early ones don't have holes for tail l light stands

later kb

 

Thanks very much, now I just have to sell off enough stuff to buy then, a NOS pair that are really worth it. Bob

 

Yes they are the same

 

Shop local Model A clubs for a good used pair -to save on shipping. Check the inside for repairs and the beading on the lip to get good ones. Finding true Henry steel NOS ones will be near impossible and you'll be competing with someone who has very deep pockets restoring a rare model for fine point MAFCA/MARC judging.
https://www.mafca.com/chapters_list.html Some of the chapters are online and post their newsletters with cars and parts for sale - a great source. But be forewarned talk of restoration not hot rods.

 

Thanks 29Sleeper, the fenders belong to a friend I've know for 50 years. Finding the funds is the tough thing. Bob

 

28/29 Touring fenders are the same as the sedan fenders.

 

There is something so special about NOS Ford parts, especially sheet metal. Getting these is going to the head of the line over other things I need. I'll just keep listing stuff till I cover the cost.

 

I'll always remember the story a friend told about buying NOS rear fenders from Joe Mac back in the 1960's. The price was $25.00 per fender, and my friend wondered if the increase is price was going to kill the hobby.
