Help!! I need this fender sold. My asking price mut be way off base. I really do need it to find a good home. How often do you get the chance to buy a new old stock fender, or any other body part for that matter. Doesn't someone want this?

We used to see a lot of NOS fenders and other pieces at swap meets. However, most of them have long since been used on restorations where owners wanted only the best pieces.
There are some various pieces that NOS parts are still common, but it has been a long time since I have seen any NOS fenders.

But I personally have no foreseen use for one. And I have a couple decent rear fenders already.

For you new guys. Back in the day left side nos sheet metal was rare. If you saw 10 nos fenders, 9 would be right side.
Dealers did not stock left side. Driver could see left side better, so less damage.
If I needed that fender I would think hard about passing it up.
What gets me about this hobby, I couldn’t sell NOS 23/25 Sedan fenders for $50 each at Hershey. But someone will paid $300+ for a new without brackets????

This kind of falls into the category of the ring and pinion or complete rear end assy. that I'm looking for, for my 1924 Chevrolet truck. If you had one laying out in your field and decided that you wanted to sell it, you'd have a hard time getting $50.00 for that rusty old thing. I really need one and would gladly pay $500.00 for one. If there's no need, no value. Hopefully someone will need this fender and give it a new life, even if it's just for display.
