    I was wondering if anyone had ever used model a fenders on a 33-4 pickup on an original 33-4 ford frame?

    Sorry if this seems like an odd question but model a fenders are pretty easy to find and 33-4 are not.

    Just throwing it out there thanks.

    Model A's use splash aprons,the fenders mpunt to the splash apron and running board.

    32-34 Fender mount directly to the frame and running board,,so no the don't fit but I'm sure if you have enough time and are a heck of a body man it's not impossible to make them work,,but there would be more work involved than it's worth IMHO. HRP

    This photo is 1932 Ford truck fenders,,the are similar in design,,enough to give you a idea,,BTW,,33/34 truck fenders are a little longer than Model A's. HRP

    '33/34 truck front fenders aren't particularly tough to find. Original rears, however, are rather tough and usually really beat up. If you can stomach it, Speedway sells fiberglass reproductions for the rears in stock and widened widths.

    Model A fenders would just plain look goofy on a '33/34 truck; totally wrong proportion.

    It's a 33/34 cab sitting on a 29 frame with 29 splash aprons,fenders and running boards. HRP
     
  10. That's just a tad different than fitting A fenders to a 34 frame isn't it?
    But the proportions aren't bad

    34 truck is very similar to model A car.
