trying one more time

I am looking for left and right inner fender supports ( whats spotwelded to actual fender) they don't reproduce the part and before I start to make some ( repair the old ones, seeing if anyone may have a set of damaged or wrecked fenders they be willing to cut these pieces out of,crusty is ok but should be solid this is for a 1969 cutlass...

thanks in advance

Somebody DOES reproduce them, the problem is that they won't sell them without a fender attached to them. I've contacted some of the repro houses about this, since every repro fender has the inner braces spot welded in. The stamping dies obviously exist. Unfortunately, no one wants to sell them separately. Maybe if enough people ask...
