Default What Fender?

Have a bit on a dilemma. Bought a 1936 Ford Pickup years ago and am just now starting to reassemble. The truck appeared to be complete, except no engine/transmission. However, I have come to realize that the rear fenders may not be the correct year. Attached is a photo. The overall arc length measured on the outside of the fender is about 68-1/2"; Width = 10-1/2"; Horizontal front to back length of 45". Went to a car show this weekend and saw a '35 that had a bolt to a rear fender bracket. Mine have no similar bolt attachment location.

So, what are these? 1934?

Certainly not 35-37. Maybe 32?

Not '32 as the hole spacing where it attaches to the chassis frame in front is too wide.

I agree that it is likely the '33-'34 version, but it's the hole spacing that suggests that as the '32 also has two holes where the fender attaches to the frame as shown below in the photos of a NOS '32 fender.

Nottaford. Likely Cornbinder.

Still looking for some consensus on these fenders. Here are a couple more photos.

Front of the fender has one level of 3 holes on 3-1/2" centers and a lower level of 2 holes on 5" centers. Assume the two hole pattern was added to bolt to the '36 running boards.

Second photo shows fender to vehicle bolt pattern. Note that previous owner likely added holes and attached fenders using original carriage type bolts that went through the truck box.

Well, they'd probably be worth more if they were from a Binder.

With these additional photos, I agree with Karl that they are not Ford fenders.
