Sc/Rambler wheel lip detail Front Fender

These pictures are of the wheel lip bends . I am not the original owner .So lets let the pro's comment on these details . If its agreed they are the real thing ....here they are .Note: I tried to get a shot of where the lip seems to follow a body line referance .At the start of the bends ...
As trivia , How did the factory do these bends , a special tool??Looking to find out ...

Shots to show more evidence that these are actual Sc/Rambler original 1969 fenders .Note the red showing under the white . some black pinstripe is left .Emblems are real OEM also ...This is 1969 factory . Or a partial redo as factory .Comments are welcome ....Photobucket
