Fender braces

« on: December 29, 2005, 08:38:49 AM »

Do the fender braces on a 68 Dart connect to the bumper support?That seems to be the only logical place but the don't quite reach.I have seen braces that are straight but mine are angled on the ends.I am sure they came off of this car.Any thoughts?

thanks,Dave

Are you talking about the braces that run from the inner fender to the wheel lip? I think the 68's had them and the 69's did not.

Yes, the ones on the lower portion of the fender in front of the wheelwell go to the bumper bracket. I don't think I have any pics handy, though.
