Trouble removing fenders/wings
I'm removing and parting out my front fenders, bumpers, etc. I have all the bolts out of the inside of the frunk and inside the wheel well. The fender panel is loose except it seems to be attached still at the bottom near the front of the door. Is there a hidden screw or trick to remove that portion? The fender is in good shape so I dont want to tweak it during removal.
Here's where it seems to still be attached but I dont see any screws or bolts there. Car is a 1978.   thanks for the help

Did you get the 2 bolts outside at the top accessed by opening the door?
There are no hidden bolts at the bottom... although I think they may have sprayed undercoating AFTER they installed the fenders, so maybe you missed one? Or maybe the undercoating is acting like glue and just needs to be sliced? Tom

My fender had a small tack weld at the bottom.

Yeah, I got the two up top inside the door jamb. It seems like its just the bottom.
Ed, yours was tacked?

Came off after some gentle manouvering. The PO's paint job has glued things in place. The headlights were stuck in. I dont know what his plan was if the headlight needed replacement.
