AMD Sherman Goodmark question

[Richie]

Hi everybody:

I just bought a 68 Coronet fender from a Mopar salvage company and I'm note complaining but to me ..It's too nice. So I was wondering what if it's an old AMD fender and it was on a car for only a couple of years. So does anyone know if one those companies even made 68 Coronet fenders at one time? I know you can't get them now if you could at one time.

I don't remember ever seeing a repo 68 Coronet fender available.

Golden star?

I don't think any of the companies have ever reproduced a fender for a 68 or 69 Coronet.

Wow, how can it be "too nice" ?!?!?

I concur with the boys up there ^^^. I don't believe anyone ever made repops for the 68.

Might have been NOS installed when they were still available from Chrysler Corp. My GTX had both fenders, trunk floor, and quarters replaced with this stuff in 1981, and never saw the elements afterwards. If I didn't know the car's history I too would have been scratching my head about reproductions that looked too good. On the other end of the spectrum, my '67 Valiant I drove until 1980 got a new fender late in the game when my sister crashed it.

Clean fender and that is the original hole for the front side marker.. Sounds like you are second guessing that..

No Coronet fenders have ever been reproduced. By any company.
Sherman does not make parts-They are just a retailer.
New Chrysler fenders in those days were often factory defects. Pieces welded together crooked, the outer skin not tightly crimped over the inner structure etc, so look close for issues like those.
Chrysler also made replacement fenders in the mid 70's that had odd differences like a square nut where the original fenders had that odd rosette looking hood adjuster nut.

We'll look it over and compare it to the old one. Thanks for the info.
