nov 44 GPW Battery Tray Question

Post by Al Rains » Thu Feb 15, 2018 2:57 pm

As my granddaddy use to say "Boy, no question is too stupid to ask if you don't know the answer. So, did all the Ford GPWs have the Ford style battery tray through the end of Ford production or was it possible for one to have a Willys style tray as does my Oct/Nov 44 GPW? Thanks for a quick response as I plan to be ordering parts on Friday from Ron and if needed, I will get one. TIA Al

Hello All
All the from 44 mfd gpws as far as I'm aware. would have left the factory fitted with the ford style tray. What got fitted in the field would of course be use whatever was to hand. Hope that helps. :)
