If you got more money then brains I might consider selling the NOS pair I have but I do want to put them on when I get it ready for paint,I have a pair on it now that came from out west that were not as good as advertised but definately way better then what comes from the rust belt and still has original metal under the head light area. It might be 3 or 4 years before I get around to painting my 55 and really not interested in selling the NOS fenders but if someone would offer some real stupid money for the pair of fenders and NOS quarter panel I would listen.

Hey junkyardjeff it sounds like you are spending too much time in the junkyard, Do you want to sell the NOS fenders or NOT.

Like I said if I was offered stupid money I might part with them but will most likely go on the car,I have a decent set that are on the car now that I would sell but it might be a few years before I get around to painting my 55. When purchasing the fenders that are presently on the 55 I was told they would not have any body work but one was patched on the bottom and the other is skimmed with bondo but both still have original metal under the headlights. Now on the NOS pair,if someone would start offering over 5 thousand for the pair I might start listening,there is a thread on the HAMB about searching the state of Arizona for abandoned vehicles and somewhere is a pile of 60s on back cars and the sheetmetal looks good on them and there is a 55 or 56 in the pile. From what I have read the parts are for the taking if you can get back to them and might be worth a trip to find out.

A company in Michigan that made fiberglass fenders for 56s used to advertise in the CVA magazine,but they don't anymore.I don't have any idea if they are still in business and I can't remember the name of the company.Maybe someone else on here would know.You might try contacting the Crown Victoria Assn.website and ask if they have any knowledge that company.

I think the company that made the fiberglass fenders is no more,they made some very nice fenders and wish now I would have bought a pair instead of the pair of western fenders as they would never come back off and my NOS pair would be sold to the person that had way more money then brains.

I purchased a fiberglass hood and both fenders from this company last July for my 55 Mainline.

I believe that the guy’s name was John
They were selling on Ebay at the time. I have not installed any of them on my car to know
well they fit, but they appear to be of good quality.
