I'm hoping that someone can help me idenify this fender,(year make etc). It came with some 1931/1932 Chevy parts I purchased a short time ago.
Thanks for your help.

Looks like a 1931 right rear fender that originally was installed on a car with rumble seat.

I agree with Chipper, It looks just like the ones that I just put on my 31 rumble seat coupe. Right rear with the step plate to get into the rumble seat.

Thanks, I was unaware that the 31 had a recess for the side of the body. Is that the only difference between a 1931 and a 1932.

That also looks like a 1931 fender to me as well, however I question the crease on the inside of the fender.

A 1932 fender has a dovetail in the bead at the base of the fender.

wink :) :grin:

Here is a photo of the dovetail in the bead at the leading edge of the fender on the passenger side of a '32 (note the pin stripe has yet to be painted):
