Hi-

Helping a friend ID these front fenders and seats. There are two sets of front fenders, one set is primered and one set is original with the inner fenders.

There is a bottom seat cushion and a matching rear cushion with original springs, etc.

They had 1939 Mercurys in the past, so I am thinking these are 1939 Mercury?

Would they fit other years and models?

They will be for sale and I can supply better photos, but I want to make sure what they fit before I advertise them here.

Thank you in advance.

Not the best photos to make a positive ID from.
The pair with the inner fender pans appear to be 1940 Ford. They will fit 1939 deluxe as well.
The pair w/o the inner pans appear to be (left in the photo) 1940 Ford and (right in the photo) 1939 Ford deluxe.
Unfortunately, none of these fenders are worth any "real" money.

The seat cushions are definitely rear seat. My guess is convertible. Width? Photos of the back(s) would be a big help.

Here are a couple more photos. Thanks for the help.

From this angle they may be Merc. How about a photo directly from the back?

Hi; they all seem to have the crease down from the center of the headlight hole-Merc? I am always looking for early '39 Dlx, but not here it seems. Newc

Merc fenders are noticeably longer from the rear of the wheel opening to the running board due to the Mercury’s longer wheelbase.

Here are two photos of a 1939 Ford Deluxe Fordor Sedan and 1939 Mercury Town Sedan.
Hopefully, the second photo will help you establish which Fenders that you have. Hope that this helps.

Thanks to everyone for the help. I am pretty confident they are 1939-40 Mercury. I have listed them for sale in the classifieds if anyone is interested. Thanks again.

They do appear to be off a Mercury. Good luck in selling them.
