Default Can you identify this fender?

The fender marked #4 is a 1931 Model A Ford Wide Bed Fender. The other fender has almost the exact same profile, but without the cut out for the splash apron. The mounting holes are also larger and oblong. Does anyone know what this mystery fender might go on? Thanks!

Number 4 looks like a 31 wide box fender. the other one does NOT look to be Model A

I agree, I don't think it is a model A fender. The mounting holes aren't like the ones used on a model A.

Also notice the difference in the profile of the mystery fender where it attaches to the body, compared to the model A fender, which has a sharper curve.

I'd say the other fender is a 1930 31 Chev. The oval holes for mounting go the other way compared to an "A". 32 Chev had a wider bead.
