Ford F Marks
Did Ford only use the "F" mark on GPW's or was it common practice on other vehicles they manufactured, military or civilian?

Re: Ford F Marks
They used F script bolts on GTBs. Both mine have them. As far as F scripts on the parts, I have not seen any. However, I have not media blasted the body yet.

Re: Ford F Marks
Thanks for the reply. I was just curious as to whether I could source bolts from other vehicles that Ford manufactured that had the F script.

Re: Ford F Marks
Need to ask that question on the Model T and A forums.
Ok, I see it now; those are two separate forums; NOT one. If they exist that is.
