I would think the fit of Macks would be good, you have less tolerance issues with the pickup. A's you know the originals are hard to find in good condition and good to mint usually go out of reasonable price range. To rework the coupe/roadster/nbed pickup fenders, they remove a 2" section front to back, it shouldn't alter the way it bolts up. I got real lucky and found a NOS wbed fender at an auction very close to my house, for 170 bucks...

Be sure to post your findings, the 31 mailtruck uses these fenders also. Sort of a shame with my NOS one, to fit to the mailtruck, I will have to drill a series of holes in the top middle, they don't use the original mounting holes.
