Between the front fenders below the center of the radiator/grill shell there is a gap. I have a 3 piece bracket which 1 piece is shaped close to the contour of the front fenders. I have been told the bracket mounts between the fenders as a "filler" between the fenders. Does this bracket mount on top or beneath the fenders? Since I did not disassemble this car, I have no idea where it really goes. Thank you...JIM

Hi Jim,

The two brackets go inside,the vee'd one under the grille shell, the straight one at the bottom. Then the C or J shaped moulding bolts to both of them in their center holes and it hides the gap between the fenders. Hope this helps.

Pat and James,
I also have a '34 Master with a disassembled front end. Can you provide dimensions on the bracket pieces? This is the first I have seen of them. I have the center clip.

Thanks, Chris

Look under the radiator shell and the lower lip of the front fenders where they meet; this should help you...JIM
