VRY 4201-A

Post by Doug Long » Sat Dec 17, 2016 8:11 am

I picked up a voltage regulator thinking it was G503.Got home and found out it is 25 amp not 40 amp.It was dark out!
The model is VRY 4201-A,serial is 4W005130. I did find some threads here on the G some say it is for a truck,Or is it for a slat grill?Am I correct in dating it as an April 1942? Help in Identifying this !Thanks!

Post it for sale in the 2-1/2 Ton+ Truck Section, there just might be an Autocar, or Studebaker US-6 restorer who may need it.
Put Autocar and Studebaker in the title.

Yes I would like to see someone that needs it get it and I end up with the correct one for my GPW.The PO 's grandfather had a 6x6 at one time.He still had some sort of GM bomb truck and an MB on his property.
