I have a pair of 72 dart fenders and pulled them out of the shed today and noticed something odd.
one has a support brace on inside toward the top of the wheel arch.
odd thing is the the other fender don't have one nor does it even have the tab where it would go and there is no evidence of a broken weld or any trace of a brace piece ever having been there.
the fender that don't have it is original to the car im working on ...it the pass side and this is a 72 dart swinger 2 door HT
the fender that does have the brace is a driver side replacement and was taken off a 72 dart custom 4 door parts car ...I still remember that car and it was for sure a 4 door.
why would one have it yet the same year of fender, the other don't
