Pair of Fenders $150 shipped: testing waters - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I just want to check if this will help or be worth it to some members or not.
I will have a pair of 68 style GMC fenders and a pair of 69-72 chevy fenders available soon. They have no rust as far as I could tell but need body work. They have dents and one of each pair has tears that need to be welded. I want to sell them as pairs because shipping is about the same for 1 or 2 fenders so it won't be worth the shipping for just one fender. Cheapest shipping I found a month ago was FEDEX. I beleive the website calculated about $85. I figure I'll be spending about $25 in packaging material if I use bubble wrap and cardboard boxes. I figured 1 roll should be enough since it needs bodywork anyway and I can't package it thick because the measurements just came within their acceptable limits. I still have to check them out closer for a better description and have them boxed to make sure fedex will accept them as soon as my back gets better. If anyone is interested, as soon as I can, I'll get pictures.

427...I got some inner fenders but I'm not sure I need them until I remove my bumper , grill and take a closer look.

68... I want to grind off some bondo that's on one fender to see how badly it's dented or torn before I take pictures. If I remember the chevy fenders were the better pair

. I was going to box the rad support today but decided to finish the can of primer on the back side and it was still tacky after an hour. Remember this is not paint primer and may not be a good base for painting. It is an industrial outdoor metal primer to protect steel from corroding, so if your going to paint the support you may want to sand it off. It has a black semi-gloss finish not flat like paint primer.
