Projects 47 zephyr interchange??

does anyone know what fenders may interchange with a 47lincoln club coupe... years and makes? front clip or rear fenders. i wanta more streamlined look. or i can modify but dont want to cut up originals if i dont have to. the rear body looks like same lines as 40 41 ford lincoln merc.

 

I think you are going to be cutting those. Ford fenders won't bolt on there.

 

< I like the looks of the fenders myself. Sets it apart from the Fords and Mercury’s of the day....

 

1940/1941 Zephyr rear fenders will bolt on and are streamlined (like 1939/1940 Ford).

 

Clean those up and work them into full fade-aways. But first like always, Get it running, rolling stopping. Then do the cutting.

Check out the Darrin Lincoln from the 40's - I know this is aa Continental, but the idea on the fender is fairly close.

This is the answer. Ford and Merc are not even close, what you want is a '40 or '41 Lincoln front clip.

 

The 42-48 body is wider in the cowl than the 40-41 from what I've been told. To use the 40-41 stuff, you'd have to widen the hood. I had the same thoughts when I first got mine, until I learned it wouldn't work as produced.

 

That's very interesting, I had not heard that, I stand corrected.
