Guest myfirstbuick Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 Hello airbrushguy, I have a '39 Special original. I'll review all the locations and reply this evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ncgirl05 Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 The rear fender is the whole length. The front is only on the 12-14 inches up fron the running board. Hope this helps.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest myfirstbuick Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 Maybe you can help ME with a question because Century and Special were so similar - in the photo attached of the shifter and clutch linkage do I have my bottom spring attached in the right location?

airbrushguy Posted August 1, 2007 Author Share Posted August 1, 2007 I'd love to help you, but I am resto-rodding the car and the original engine,trans and rear...are no longer. Sorry to the members that feel this is wrong, but I've built a terrific ride, that when done will appear totally stock on exterior and interior, but will reliably take me all across the US in my retirement years.Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest myfirstbuick Posted August 1, 2007 Share Posted August 1, 2007 No problem, airbrushguy. Thanks for responding. Your car sounds great. To me, that's why this hobby is so terrific - to each his/her own. Some of mine are totally original and some are resto-rodded. Sure would like to see some pics..

Dynaflash8 Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 Myfirstbuick is correct. The fender welt is always black,regardless of the color of the car and goes all the way around the rear fenders. On the front fenders it goes only up as high as the bottom edge of the hood side panels where the five bolts connect the rear of the fenders to the cowl. IF you have sidemounts, the fender welt along the bottom edge of the sidemount cover is painted the color of the car. I used flex paint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
