Here are some pictures of the fenders on my car. Can anyone ID these? I would be very grateful. Thanks.

Those sure look like the ones in this catalog page, and the other. Many companies made special fenders, Ames too, but those were mostly sold with their bodies too.

The features of wire edge, may be the key. The design is 'crown'. And that extension on the front fenders for the slash apron is a match.

That feature would be needed for these aftermarket fenders to be listed as "1909-1917". As the early splash aprons have a big gap there, that extension would cover it.

Jack, Those are sure spiffy looking fenders and dead ringers for the magazine ads Dan supplied.

When I first saw them,I didn't like them. They tend to grow on you after awhile. They are just part of the stuff on this old car that make it unique.
