WTS: 42 GPW Glovebox Door With Tags - SOLD
Hello.
I've had this glove box laying around for some time now and have no need for it. The date has been over stamped with the same date, but different font. The serial number has been over stamped as well. Interesting. If anyone has any thoughts as to what happened, please feel free to share.
If anyone wants a better look, I can send you the raw photo via email.
Asking SOLD shipped to the CONUS.
Thanks and Happy Holidays!

Re: WTS: 42 GPW Glovebox Door With Tags
Looks fishy to me...
89001 seems to be stamped over 1x53x
...and of course, GPW-89001 would have a DOD in the range of December 1942.
The "3 42" I can make out for the original date would be correct for a GPW in the 1x53x range.
Someone probably did not have a title that matched their jeep so they bought one with "GPW-89001" on it or, they were trying to make a "matching numbers GPW".

I agree Chuck...the DoD and serial number don't line up.

That would me sense. I can make out a "1 1 5 3" over stamped by the " 8 9 0 0".

...and the weight listed as "2440" is something I have never seen on a GP data plate...there are many different weights stamped on them through production but I have not seen 2440 before. This would confirm for me this is a total Bubba Job!

Yes they are. At the very least, they're a good conversation piece.
