Does anyone know why such a price difference between fenders sold by Latemodel Restoration ($199.99) and National Parts Depot ($59.95)? I'm going to start collecting the parts I need for the body.

Visit a wrecking yard or better yet, craigslist for parts cars.
You can get good stuff at good prices sometimes. like Chism said, original parts are best.

I would also find a good rustfree Ford Fender and use it. Even a brand new one will need to have dents and imperfections removed so there is no benefit to buying new unless you cant find an unrusty used one. Color doesn't matter because you will probably be taking it down to bare metal and primering anyway.

Thanks for the advise. I'll start looking for a used original.

What would you do for a trunk lid. Someone installed a Toyota Corolla wing on mine. So, now it's got four holes in the top and the bracing underneath had been cut away a little. Replace? Weld?

Try to find an original used one...although that is a little tougher as they all seem prone to rust. I have heard people had good luck on the metal ones from LRS, but I have never personally used one.
