    Hi, I'm trying to figure out what year Pontiac fenders that are interchangeable to fit a 47 Pontiac streamline, thank you.

    GM used the same fenders on several car models of that era. You might want to look into that. Tail light cutouts for tail mounts will be different and so will bolt hole for mounting the lights and the grill opening depending on model. Fabrication skills would be needed. See if you can access a Hollanders Interchange book. Maybe on the web.

    I would guess 46,47,48 are close to the same for the same series.

    '41 Chev Coupe (customer car) had a rear fender replaced previous to paint: I installed a rear axle housing, then added axles, brakes, pumpkin...
    Then wheels. But the right rear was inwardly 'offset'. Measured again, then again. Steel wheels were already reversed with Merc outers. But different.
    Dropped plumb bobs, lined up frame with a square. Damned if the right fender wasn't 3/4" deeper than the left!
    Otherwise? Identical.

    Maybe there's a difference between 1941 and the late 40s?
    Hmmmmm...
