    Brockways were built about 45 minutes from me, to bad they are gone.

    I saw a Jeep CJ that had swing-out fenders like this, though the hinges are on the cowl end. The hood latches hold them closed. Pretty genius, I thought.

    Well since Brockway was bought by Mack.
    Maybe this is the reason why the Mack C600 also had swing out fenders.
    or at least the ones on mine do
    expand the photo and you can see the hinges

    just remove these 3 bolts and the fender swings out of the way
