Worth Keeping or Scrap

I have new repo fenders and cleaning out garage today of all scrap metal. Would there be any interest in this fender or any objections to taking to scrap metal recycling?

If you were near me I would take it, if it was just gonna hang around around my garage I would scrap it, maybe try a free for pickup ad on here ?

You shouldn't scrap it. The bottom of the inner brace is still good. It's a fairly easy fix. Where do you live?

That's a good fender. The inner support looks solid.
Easy to fix and originals alway fit better than reproductions

I do still have two remaining original fenders (both passenger side) and will part with them once I get all the sheet metal hung, tweaked and aligned. One needs a lower fender patch. The other is one I bought that was patched and is in pretty good shape.

Please let me know about the two remaining OEM fenders when your car is completed. Hopefully the project is going smoothly.
