Need help with 68-72 stepside longbed fender with spare tire cut out
 

Hey everybody, I posted this on the parts board and have had some good help, but have not come up with what I need just yet. I need a driver's side fender with the cutout for the spare tire for a longbed 68-72 truck. There is a difference between the shortbed and longbed fender - the cutout areas are different. I know this is a hard to find part, so I hope that someone out there has one or knows of someone who has one to sell. I need it in order to finish my 15 year long restoration......I'm so close! The pic below shows the fender that I need. Thanks! Dave

Have you considered just taking a non-cutout fender and adding the smaller LWB cup? Since the factory rolled the flange over and welded in a formed cup it would be easy enough.

If it helps here are part numbers I compiled.

Tim, thanks for your idea. Lucky for me I found the correct fender in FL and have just had it blasted. I will be fitting it to the truck this weekend.

Sounds like a plan!
