I'm putting together a MUTT from leftovers. What are the differences in front fenders,'32,'3,'34? how about running boards? This IS NOT a show truck!!!!!!!
 
The car front fenders are different in other areas besides the hump to clear the rivets. While they look the same you will find the curvature is different, length is different. Many have tried to use truck fenders on a car without success.
I believe the 32-4 TRUCK front fenders are the same. if that was your question, not if 32 passenger car fenders would work.
 
'32 truck fenders are same as passenger, except for the spare tire well if they have that. "33-4 truck fenders look very much like '32 but really do not interchange because of different curvature of frame where they attach. Visually, you can distinguish by a small bulge stamped into fender up front to clear stuff...fender brace or shock...don't remember, but an easy distinction from '32. Just not interchangeable.
BB running boards came in several lengths for use with different type bodies...all tin, not like '32 passenger.
 
I should have said truck fenders are the same ,car fenders have differences as noted above ,don't ask me what they are .Ted
 
As Bruce has indicated, all '32 front fenders without wells are the same regardless of their application (passenger cars, commercial vehicles, and big trucks). There was a running change that narrowed the flange of the fender on top of the frame forward of the front cross member, but it applied to all front fenders. The '32 front fenders are not common with any post '32 vehicle, including big trucks.
 
I concur with Bruce and David. Confirmed many times with successful sales of fiberglass fenders, and horror stories of those who try to use 1932 fenders on 1933-34 or visa versa.
