<VV> Re: Fender blending - NO CORVAIR

[BBRT]

Let's beat this dead horse some more.. Even Chevy's had separate rear 
fenders until '50-'51- or '52.. there was a welting between the fender and 
the body in the rear.  What made the '52 so sleek, was the re-shaped fender 
without the seam.. But I was a wee lad and can't remember which year they 
changed. I know the '49 Chevy had the separate fenders and think the '50 did 
too.

Perhaps one of our more experienced 'hands'  could tell us when fenders 
became part of the body-before unibody, of course...
