1914 rear fenders

Post by Art Ebeling » Wed Aug 13, 2025 2:34 pm

These are the rear fenders that came with my 14 Runabout project. Is the tab bent out to bolt to the running board apron correct? It appears to be just cut from the fender and bent out. Thanks, Art

In my experience, the mounting to the running board is full width and is bent from the top panel of the fender and has folded edges over an additional strengthening plate, just like the later fenders. The bracket which attaches to the splash apron is a separate piece, of heavier gauge material and is riveted on. Our RHD stuff originates fro Canada, and may be different.
