Default Re: 1933 original vs reproduction fenders?

Original fenders have a wire beneath the beading on the fenders and at least some of the reproductions lack this reinforcement. Not all replacement fenders are of recent vintage however as a period aftermarket company (Fostoria) produced replacement Ford fenders back in the 1930s. They are good fenders, but the bead width differs from the original as does the doubler at the bottom of the rear fenders where they attach to the running boards.
