Splash Apron Fabrication

Would someone be able to post a similar picture of the back end of a good splash apron? I need to repair this area and don’t have a good example of what it should look like (cutouts, bolt holes, etc.). TIA!

Here is a picture of the splash apron, I recently removed it to replace the clutch. Not the best picture, but I hope it helps you.

Lav, your picture is of Engine Pans. He is looking for Splash Aprons which go between the running board and the body.
 
Does this help ?
I tried to daw a white line at the hole for a reference but didn't come out very well.
The line THAT IS ther is 14" from the rear !

Are these for a '30-31 Model A? The sharp rolled edge along top appears to be for those years as opposed to the more gentle roll on '28-29 splash aprons.
If you need photos of a '30-31 splash apron, I am attaching views from my 1931 splash aprons. 1930 side aprons will be the same in the back where they attach to the rear fenders. The fronts are different from 1931 aprons, being shorter.

Yes, but technically there really is no such of a thing as a Splash Apron on a Model-A. :o I think that may be where the confusion started IMO. I saw his picture and knew the item that he was working on, but not the application. What he was asking for help with is actually the Running Board Shield (A-16535-* or 16536-*) however there are enough differences between the years where offering him any pictures of a print or a sample could easily be a 1 in 4 (-or 5) chance that it is going to be correct when offering locations of holes and cut-outs.
 
Sorry for the confusion. I’ve seen them called a few different names so I really wasn’t sure. I see now that at least one vendor calls them splash shields. My truck is a 31 and they are the one piece style, so I believe they are late 31??. Anyway, these pictures do help. I’ll be able to dial in the bolt holes later. Thanks everyone!
