ceejay Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 HI all,You know the removable steel covers which are part of the body work, which cover most of the rear wheels on a 42 to 48 Buick ?How is it supposed to be fitted to the body of the car ?Mine has 3 bolts. 2 of which are under the car.I was thinking that may be originally it was fitted with clips or hooks and used just the one bolt which can be seen when you open the rear door ?Can some one please post some photos of the inside of a cover and the fittings on the body where it fits onto ?Thanks !!

Guest Straight eight Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 (edited) Having grown up with a 48 Roadmaster four door, it sounds like you have the standard system for attaching, "fender skirts" No clips. except maybe at the very rear, there may be a clip. Here is the owners manual version. Double click the Thumbnail for a larger view. Edited May 23, 2012 by Straight eight (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ceejay Posted May 24, 2012 Author Share Posted May 24, 2012 Thanks for that !!As suspected, the skirts on my car have been modified by a previous owner.Mine has 3 bolts to attach it to the car where as it should only use the one main bolt behind the rear door.Can someone please take photos of the inside of their fender skirt showing the position, size and shape of the hooks, and the openings on the body where the hooks go into ?Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
