I don't think its a G8T. It has civy gauges in it.

Re: 1944 Ford G8T ?
I think early G8T’s had a civilian dash/gauges. This one appears to be pre-1943. I’m not an expert but I once owned a G8T (serial #168338, DoD 9-28(?)-43) when I was younger.....wish I had it now. Had a military dash, no Ford logos on the side of the hood, no fender fog lights, had a BODL on the left fender, etc).
I’m curious if there are data plates on the pasenger side dash?

Did the early ones have the fold out windshield?

Re: 1944 Ford G8T ?
I’m not sure Jay but I believe they did....I seem to recall my ‘43 G8T did but it’s been 20 years since I last saw it. I’ve always liked these trucks, even with their “faults”. I personally have only seen one restored, that I can remember (Portland in 2013).
I think the cargo beds are difficult to find?

Yes they are a rare bird. I have one with a great cab but a home built junk bed.

Re: 1944 Ford G8T ?
Maybe once my WC-4 is closer to being finished I’ll try to find another G8T....this thread has definitely renewed my fondness for them!
