 Topic: late model AMC fenders

Editing and locking as this one was to be an example of the difference and what fits what, not what someone can do with enough time on their hands - or with cars other than the topic - "late model"...

I think you will need to remove the headlight mounting panels from the '78 fenders.

Yes they should be the same. In fact they were the same for Concord and Eagle in 1980. In 1981 AMC made the change because, well, when turning corners with the Eagle, you ended up rolling the fender lip back and in because the Eagle front suspension sits wider and turns in a wider sweep. But Concord should be the same in those years unless a Concord person can specific otherwise.
If there's a chance at both, especially right, fender for Eagle, let me know. I have decent used ones but my car is rust-free and I'd only want to put new back on it should anything happen.

I'm in Kenosha, WI. Home of AMC!
I only have one fender though... I think I can contact the guy who MIGHT have the other though... I think he is in Reedsburg, WI.

I have a driver's side un-used/unpainted raw Eagle Fender that I bought for my Concord... When the wheel well trim for my Concord didn't line up... I realized I had a problem.
I am not able to verify if it is AMC OEM or an aftermarket re-pop but it is for sale if anyone needs it. I do not want to ship it.. so if someone local wants it or can drive to me... that would be best. I believe it will get damaged if it was shipped. If there is any interest... just IM me... thanks....

Don't count on it unless it's extremely rust-free and the fenders aren't dented at all. Almost all are, and many have filler in them. The shipping is a killer, otherwise nice fenders can be hand for 50 bucks or less when you find them. I paid $35 for one that was dent-free, and rust-free and included all emblems and the flare in Kenosha last year. If you charge like folks do on eBay, yeah, you'll get more than 400 from the parts, but if you charge like vendors at shows and swaps, no. Eagle parts on eBay are typically very over-priced.
