    Looking for a 1970-72 front passenger fender for a skylark. Looking for one that is decent that has not been patched in the heel and is solid for the most part. Does not have to be 100% perfect or NOS, just good enough to where the bracing can be repaired or the heel repair patch can be installed if necessary. nothing thats already been repaired or severely wrecked. Was hoping to find one close to Hermitage Pa, to where i could drive to pick one up within an hour or two. All help is appreciated

    Here's a few pics. This is an original fender. I dont know if you're aware that the NOS fenders require spot welds to be drilled out and the fender pushed up and then rewelded. This may be more than you want to spend, I dont know. I'm wanting $700.

    I did not realize that about nos femders. I do remember someone on the bpard mentioning about the "good fenders" you could stick up to your first knuckle in the middle of the fender above the wheel arch? I could be wrong about that. This is just an original fender that should fit should pretty well as is? I would be willing to come up and look at it in person if that would be okay?
