@@ I was going to post the same thing in ref to my '56. I pitched the
original rear fenders before making a template.

I don't have any measurements for you, but the '56 was positioned
higher on the fender than the '55.

I still have my original fenders for the 56 I am restoring. I will
get some measurements soon. (maybe I will get out right now and do
it). Craig

Ok.....I meaured the right fender still on the car. The lower hole
for the mounting bracket is 6 3/8 over from the edge of the fender
and just about exactly a foot up from the lower edge of the fender.
This is measured from the center of the lower mounting rivet of the
bracket. Hope this helps...Craig.
