The American fenders bolt on differently than the Canadian fenders and I am sure the dimensions are different.

I'd bet the length is identical... with a different inner support stamping as Paul states.
Was the extra 66 USA Bonny/Star Chief Executive 124" WB body length not all realized in the rear quarters, before at the dogleg, and to the rear of the WW opening?
USA Catalina 2 and 4 door Sedan, and GP bodies externally are the same dimension as CP's.

That would be my fender. You will need to save the upper re-Inforcement off your Canadian fender. Drill out the spot welds and swap your re-inforcement onto the US fender. Did it for my 61 on both sides and it worked well. I did the top re-Inforcement and the rear vertical one on my 61 fenders but I dont know if the same applies to 66. I think only the top horizontal one needs to be swapped. I know it was fun breaking the parts loose . Be careful and locate all the spot welds. Then just plug weld it back together.

Bill, is that fender rust free or needs work?

Fender is rust free as far as I can tell. A friend brought it back from Carlyle Pa for me but my car is a 65. So it is for sale.

He actually found a pair in Manitoba
I should correct that, one of them is rust free and the other one has a tiny bit to repair but not at the bottom behind the wheel. For some odd reason it's in a totally different area.
