I located these 39' Ford fenders. Not the best angle for the pic, but it's all I got. To me they look like sedan fenders. I have a 39' Plymouth Business Coupe. I was told 39' Ford coupe fender would fit and are perferred by some because they have more of a swooppy look and you get around the goofy Plymouth headlights. Waiting for a 91 year old man to call me back! He may know what they came off........
They are 39 Ford deluxe or 40 standard and deluxe fenders. Fit all passenger cars, but not pickups or trucks. Will NOT bolt up to a Plymouth without MAJOR mods. It would be easier to use Plymouth fenders and just modify the headlight area if you want different headlights. Each of those Ford fenders is worth ten Plymouth fenders. I usta have two 39 Plymouth sedans and practically gave them away. Not much market for them, so cost is reasonable.
Whats it worth? The world is not Walmart with fixed prices on every item. Even at Walmart you can get prices changed due to circumstances. The value of ANYTHING is determined by circumstance. If you have an item that you think it worth $100 but you try and try and no one will give you $100 but everyone offers $50, then maybe its only worth $50. Same thing if you have a $100 item but the buyer offers $900 (yes people do this, sometimes so they can brag about how much it cost) A junky old car or car parts is worth exactly as much as the buyer and seller agree on and that changes constantly. Some woman might want that junk out of her yard for free and you sell it for $2500, so whats it worth? One minute its worth nothing then its worth $2500. and the guy you sell it to may find someone who gives $6500. So whats it worth???
If you have the original "Square" Plymouth headlights check to see what they bring on "That Auction Site' you may be very suprised. Bob
and lets see you get the same amount! A few years back an item went for big bucks on ebay and because of that an identical item was on auction the next day. No one bid on the second one
Well I guess, Thanks for the economics lesson. I did say "Ball Park". The value of them was suggested and sparked my interest. I've bought and sold enough items in my 49 years to understand all the things you pointed out. "The More You Pay- The More It's Worth" I'm always keeping an eye out for an item to flip. Last thing was a 73 Suzuki GT550 Payed $90.00 added $40.00 in parts, Sold $1800.... As for the headlights. I got really nice 39 Plymouth fenders but no buckets or lenses. I did pick-up one round type bezel for $19.00. I don't like the odd "square" lights, So I really don't want to spend the cash for them. Looking for an alternative. One that keeps the integrity of the fenders would be wise.
There's a pair of cherry 39/40 Ford fenders in the classifieds for $800 right now. That should be a good guide.
