Eldon,
Fisher was part of GM, so I wouldn't think that Fisher had anything to do with a Ford fender, probaby at one of Ford's stamping plants or a supplier to Ford such as Budd.

Folks;
I have been asked several times recently how the auto parts were actually loaded; i.e., how the "racks" worked. In this case, PRR X37 66230 with a Ford side/rear fender assembly in place. 1954 Ford?
This is the kind of panel Fisher Body plants all over the country were producing.
