Thanks guys, it was a fun day and a great first experience. I wish I would have gotten a pic of all of us in the truck but didn't think about it till it was over with. Some of my co-workers said they saw a glimpse of the truck on the news that evening but I didn't see it. I realize Jacksonville is a...

I have moved to the area here about 6 months ago and have gotten in with a few local MVPA folks. They asked me to drive in the Veteran's Day Parade and somehow I lucked up and got to drive the Grand Marshal's on my first time driving in a parade. They boarded my truck 5 minutes before the parade too...

Trying again....

52 M42, thanks for the pics. The one I was confused on ended up being the winch plate. I Dont have a winch so. . that explains that. Lol. I saw the decal for the fording plug. I've never seen a decal for that. During my sanding process I found it spray painted once with. . maybe 1 inch and again lat...

I got more mine from Sid Beck before he passed on. Not sure who ended up with his inventory. Charles Talbert may know a source.
Good luck.

I sent a PM, any pics would be appreciated. In particular as I mentioned just left of the glove compartment where the round knockout is for the defrost I think... there was a warning to install the ford plug before fording or something like that. I also have four holes that are a vertical rectangle ...

Can someone point me to a reference or pics concerning the dash or instrument panel markings? I know there were a lot of changes over the years. I am looking mainly for the fording plug warning and what placard would be attached to the dash left of the steering column and right of the pub plate. I t...

52 M-42,
I received a picture of what I had been looking for today... so I am good to go. It doesn't look like it can be in place and have the CCKW hard top to me though... will take some measuring with the info I received today to figure it out.

Thanks,
Mark

Thanks, I will let you know if something else turns up. I guess I could cut one off of an otherwise trashed outer frame or make from scratch with a sketch.

Thanks again,
Mark

For what its worth, my 53 has what appeared to be a flat bar with threads cut into it that ran the full width of the windshield frame.(inside) I found this out after I took the home made top off and attempted to install the corner pieces for a canvas top. There were several rivet holes along the top...

Can anyone point me in the right direction to get a set of the hold down brackets or loops that are welded to the top of the windshield frame? I have the bumpers on the hood and the spring loaded hooks on the hood. Mine like many others after their military service have has them removed to facilitat...

Great looking truck! It's nice that there was at least a hint of mud.

Jeff,
No worries, I was screwing it up. . lol I haven't been on the forum a lot in some time and just didn't do it correctly. Sorry I missed the.engine.

Jim,
Sounds good. I'll pm you my phone and we can find a date that will work. You have job security in my opinion! Lol
Talk to you soon.
Mark

Can you tell me if this engine is still available? I tried to send a PM but it said "user does not exist".

Thanks,
Mark
