Drivers side has rivets, passenger side has bolts w/ square nuts. It's obvious the car was in a wreck at some point and the drivers side took the most damage...I would assume the drivers side fender was replaced or fixed but you know what they say about assumptions! Being a late '36 with steel doors i'm wondering which is correct... the rivets or bolts? RIP Trololo Man 1935-2012
