Here's a link to a C/L ad for a pair of beat up front fenders for a '36 Airstream listed in Winterset, IA (the birth place of Marion Morrison). The seller doesn't know what car the fenders fit. I might think he could be talked into selling the horn covers on their own, if one of you needed a pair. Who will be the first to know who Marion Morrison is?

Yeah, it isn't a bad price even for just the horn covers. The left fender doesn't look to be worth bothering with, but the right one might be OK. The surface is so blotchy with paint and surface rust that it's hard to see what shape it's really in. Ninety nine percent of you know this, but I'll mention it just in case -- the fender itself (without the riveted on "catwalk", or inner fender extension) is the same as the Dodge or Desoto fenders. The L.F. fender on my '36 Dodge started out life as a Chrysler fender. The only difference between it and the original Dodge outer fender is that the Chrysler fender came with a small hole down near the lower edge that once held a mounting clip for the long stainless running board molding.
