    1940 Ford Coup right hand side front fender

    Looking for a good OEM right front fender for my 40 coup. Hopefully one sourced out of California. Don't trust shipping sheet metal thru the mail so hopefully one turns up soon. Had an accident an don't like putting expensive 20 gauge fenders on my coup. Any help would be appreciated
