PANEL LIGHT KNOB FOR SLAT GRILL????

Postby Christophe Chevalet » Sun Apr 22, 2012 1:28 am

HELLO SLAT OWNERS AND OTHER GMEMBERS!
I HAVE A DOUBT CONCERNING THE RIGHT SLAT GRILL PANEL LIGHT KNOB!
OFF COURSE IS MADE IN METAL BUT I HAVE 3 VERSIONS!!!
WHICH ONE IS CORRECT FOR SLAT GRILL?????
FOR MY OPINION IMG 0869 IS CORRECT FOR FORD GPW EARLY (VEP) BECAUSE THIS KNOB COME FROM A VEP (APRIL1942) , IMG 866 IS CORRECT FOR DODGE BECAUSE LETTERING IS DODGE DESIGN, IMG0863 IS CORRECT WILLYS EARLY SLAT GRILL AND STANDARD.
WHAT IS YOUR OPINION OR COMMENTS?
THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR HELP...

I'll have a look in John Farley's books and see if there is a good photo of a Slat Dash.
GPW 204556
10 X 110S 1
USA 20536862

MB371922
ACM2 Tub 23298

They are "very inflexible and almost radical," he said. "They appeal to a fringe element of gun owners". Gen. Norman Schwarzkopf on the NRA, 1995.
