I am looking to purchase front fenders for my 1932 Ford Tudor Sedan from United Pacific. I know that they are manufactured in Taiwan , but I’m not sure how much modification they will need. I have purchased several other smaller items from UP and have been very satisfied! Any information would be great! Thanks ron.shank @yahoo.com

Ron, I don't know about their '32 stuff. Years ago, they sold super nice '39 - '40 sheet metal. About three years ago, I got a few things from them that were "okay" at best, all requiring hours of modification. Recently (last month) I got a rear floor pan with tool tray from them that is again "okay" at best and again, will require hours of rework to make it right. I thought I'd add that even though the items I'd received from them in the past few years are "okay" at best, they have been a huge help to my projects. Mike "Kube" Kubarth

I've had no experience with their '32 front fenders, but their '32 pickup rear fenders are perfect, including their fit, for the nearly everyone (a perfectionist would quibble that the inside of the beading has a bit more overlap than the originals). Their pickup door latches and window regulators are better than NOS (because they haven't been stored for 80+ years in often less than ideal circumstances).
