Here's another 53-56 with a dented front fender. My 54 had a dented left front fender. I know many of our trucks had or have dented front fenders.
Reason?
My truck had a dented left front fender when I got it. Also a damaged grille and bumper, and some minor damage to the cowl where the fender is bolted in.
Kind of like the droopy door handles on the earlier trucks. It's just the way it is.

.
Reason? Is it because of the shorter wheel base of the 53-56 models? The front end whips around quicker when backing and turning. And the driver hits farm equipment, garage doors, posts, etc.
Or is it because the fenders are so fat?
Here's my 54 with the dented front fender before I fixed it up.
