If you can let me see bout what i can do for ya on a pass side fender.I made a mistake not looking in the box to see the other fender and it turned out to be a 81-7 aftermarket one so it got tossed.But i am going to a show/swap meet the end of the month so i know for a fact there gonna have parts for these trucks especially fenders.If you want give me a top dollar price you like to spend and if i can find 1 i`ll get it n we can do another transaction.I'm hoping to fill my entire list of parts i need.A lot of small stuff but it will add up once i am done.

thanks
pat
