Sorry I haven’t looked at them for awhile. I think they are

Did you ever get a chance to snap a pic of your passenger side shield?

Driver's side

Ha! Jim I was referring to the splash shield that is on the driver frame rail and possibly passenger.

Hmmm, And where would those go?

 

[erickson]

They are the front splash shields. Just in front of the K member. I can take a picture tomorrow

 

[dmoore]

Ok I know there are two each side secured with wire formed push in fasteners but what's with the metal?

My original question was concerning this area passenger side frame rail. I have 4 or 5 tapped holes which would lead you to believe there was a splash shield on that side like the driver's side.

I only had one on the driver's side. Someone said there was only one. Splash shield for the starter

Dave, that would be the starter splash shield. It has as cut out for the tie rod to pass through. There is also a rubber shield that clips to it that is reproduced. There is no matching shield on the passenger side frame rail. I bought a good used starter shield from Joe Suchy.

So no one has ever seen a splash shield on the passenger side frame rail like what is found on the driver's side??

I have a 65 Coronet and know of another Coronet 440, plus a 65 Coronet 500 and none have this shield. Hope this helps.

Yeah me either. Very odd that I would have the tapped holes spaced out exactly as the drivers side. Oh well, another mystery yet to be solved I guess.
