I bought 2 N.O.S front fenders that was ferryed from York to within 125
miles from me. One is for a 57 Scotsman with no vent door and the other
is for a 58 Packard.. Decision is to weld up all the holes including
the vent door on the Packard fender or cut a hole in the Scotsman
fender. Decision Decisions always Decisions

Personally, I'd go for having the vents- not much fresh air without them.

I would try to get the correct fender. If you decide to use these,
just use them as they are. No one can see both sides of the car at the
same time.

I consider myself lucky to find these.

The 58 Packard fenders are getting tougher to find rust free. I would
be interested
in buying this one from you. I do come across 58 Studebaker fenders
quite often.
I could pick one of those up and trade you.
