My son has a 57 Dodge, and we had a 62 Chrysler here for a short time, both have pretty substantial front frame rails, I doubt the inner fenders add much support. On my son's car, the inner fenders are basically curved tin that fills the gap between the outer fender and the frame rail. The passenger side holds the battery, and the passenger side holds the air cleaner assembly.
