hey guys I am putting my dads lasalle 39    back together after 30+ years of being apart in a old shop
I took it apart and some of the inner fender panels werent there back then   , I have  a body manuel  but it doesnt show the front fenders or bracing    I have the main brace that goes on each side  that connects  to the radiator  housing but now the whole front end can sway from side to side pivoting on this radiator support   does anyone have some complete drawings 1939 5019 any help is appreciated

Greg, I think you will find thats how its supposed to be. The radiator is eventually stabilized by the cowl struts and the fenders are then attached to the bottom legs of the cowl solidifying the whole front clip.  Jim will confirm there is usually only the one main bracing.
