Guest sndtubes Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 I have a 1930 Buick Model 46 Business Coupe. I have an opportunity to buy some 30 Buick parts including fenders from a Model 47 Sedan. I don't have a parts book, so I'm wondering if any of the fenders or other body parts will fit my coupe? Can anyone out there verify this one way or the other? I sure don't want to buy a buch of body parts and schlep them half way across the country only to find out they won't fit. Thanks, gang.

jscheib Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 I do not have a clear answer, but it would seem that the series fenders should be the same, if sedan or coupe, or roadster. The question would be if each is the same, with or without sidemounts. I hope someone can answer your question.John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sndtubes Posted October 28, 2006 Share Posted October 28, 2006 John,Thanks, I tend to agree, but like you I just don't know for sure. I'd sure like to have some sidemounts! I wonder if I'd ever be able to find 'em. I've already spent so much on this car it doesn't matter anymore! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Rawling Posted October 28, 2006 Share Posted October 28, 2006 Front fenders for the ser. 40 are all the same fit whether they have side mount wells or not and regardless of which body style you have. The thing you need with the side mount fenders is the bracket that goes inside the cowel to hold the arm that secures the sidemount.Rear fenders off a coupe will not fit a sedan. There may be other non fits on other body styles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sndtubes Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 Thanks for the info, Fred. So if anyone looks at this thread, I would like to put my request in for sidemount fenders and hardware if anyone has them for sale. If you have them or know anyone that may have a pair for sale, I'd like to buy them.My email address is: sndtubes@vacuumtubes.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a bummer, though. It's really one of the rear fenders I want to replace. Oh well. Do they reprint that parts book? I probably ought to have a copy.

Guest DaveCorbin Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 Dear Mike: My 1941 master parts book shows 1238738 as the right rear and 1238739 as the left rear. The interchange listed is 1930 Model 46 AND 1931 Model 66. I hope this helps. Regards, Dave Corbin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sndtubes Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 Thanks, Dave. Yes that helps. It tells me without a doubt that I cannot use the rear fenders from the model 47 sedan on my model 46 coupe. The parts I'm going to look at are from a model 47.
