The '50 has a two-piece splasher panel. Not a huge job to remove them but there is no access panel as such. Biggest problem I had was that most of the bolts were severely rusted due to the location causing exposure to water/snow/ice/salt etc. Replaced over half of them. The location of the ventilation tubes over the tire, under the fender doesn't help access any.
