Anybody want to make 20 bucks? I need a chrome template for the fenders

[trailerjack]

Hey folks,

I know I got one shot with this, want to do it right, so if someone would make me a template of their chrome on the fenders with the holes for the clips, I would gladly shoot them 20 bucks.

Let me know. I was looking on the forum and dont really feel like screwing up my paint job.

here is a pic for your troubles.

I did mine by using the plastic ones that pop rivet on.
I just put it on the body and leave a little gap. Take a drill bit that fits in the hole, I keep the plastic one in place when I start to drill so it does not move. I found out the screw ones are the best. Just be sure what ever holes you put in the body, that you paint over it. Or you will have rust streaks later on

Thats awesome! I actually needed that too, but am also needing a template and/or measurements for the chrome strip on the front fender.

Haha, oops. I can't help you there, no chrome on mine. Sorry.

Ok sorry for the delay, here you go.

Measuring from the back edge of the fender the holes are on the following centers measured to the nearest 1/8":
1) 1-1/8"
2) 10-3/8"
3) 19-1/2"
4) 28-3/4"
5) 37-7/8"
6) 46-5/8"

All holes are 3/4' off the body line

These are off an original fender and none of the locations are super critical, but this will get you in the ballpark.

I dug this off a message I sent to another member that had the same question from a couple years back, forgot I had it. It's measured from the othe end of the fender, maybe you could compare the two? My Bronco is a '68

Fender from grill seam:
3 7/16", 12 1/4", 21 3/8", 30 9/16", 39 3/4", 48 15/16". First two hole sizes are 1/4" all others are 1/8".
