Anyone know which body styles share the same rear fender as a 1931 Station wagon? I may need to get a replacement for the passenger side rear so if anyone has any for sale, that would also be appreciated.

The A-16310-B RH Rear Fender was used on 35B Phaetons, 55B Tudor Sedans, the Fordors, the non wide-bed Pick-ups, the 190A Victorias, and the 400A Convertible Sedans. These fenders have not been reproduced in quite awhile, so you are likely going to repair yours or find an original fender needing restoration work.
 
Thanks Brent! Hoping to save mine but, if it's not replaceable , at least I know exactly what to look for with your information.

Hard to see but it's ripped right across the lower section, dented and creased inwards about halfway up as well. The body shop I'm taking it to hasn't seen it yet so possibly they'll say whether or not they can salvage it.
 
I know folks have grafted pieces from other fenders to repair originals but it takes a good bit of metal working experience to do the job.

That fender is repairable from my perspective. It is worth noting that a Body or Collision Shop is NOT the place for you to be having repairs being made. You need to find a Restoration Shop in Canada that has the expertise to metalwork that fender.
 
Thanks again guys! I'm hoping it gets repaired as it's the original fender. (beyond my capabilities myself)

I was thinking the same. That kind of repair needs to be done by someone that knows 'panel beating', not the average collision repair. I have seen some guys that could make that piece from a piece of sheet steel so there has to be someone that can repair it.
 
Often the Hot Rod crowd is a good source to find a good sheet metal repair people. Not a Hot Rod kinda guy, but I do admire their metal working skills.
