Parts needed for GPW3606 rebuild

Post by Fabrizio » Tue Jan 16, 2018 5:34 am

Hi all!
Instead of posting for each part, I thought I'd better write up a full and up-to-date list of all the parts I will need.
I am fully aware that some are close to impossible to find, but who knows...

I am looking for:


BODY
-Outer windshield frame, possible "Ford" marked
-Windshield brackets on the cowl found, + unmarked bolts+ thumb screws
-Windshield and top bow chains
-Ford top bow
-Ford top bow cast swivels
-Early F small mouth fuel tank
-1 TIGER EY reflector
-Rear seat F hooks
- 1 F grill blackout marker, with felt seal

FRAME
-Original Willys bumper + wood filler
-Various donor sections, or NOS (bumper gussets etc) found

TRANSMISSION
-Early right fill F case, or early Willys style found
-Scalopped F shafts found the short one
-Thin F transfer shifter canes

ENGINE
-Early block (Wilson or Ford) found
-Early F intake manifold
-F carb spring tab
-F coil
-F coil D washers
-F tall crossover tube
-F early carb and filter air horns found
-F AC pancake found
-Early F dipstick + tube found
-Early F valve cover found + downdraft tube
-Ford stamped crankshaft pulley
-Autolite GEG5001A genny

DASHBOARD

-Paint can SW AMP gauge

-Choke+throttle stamped knobs
-BO drive switch found
-Original foot starter switch
-TOBE hinged filterette
-Black SHELLER
-Dash "lights" with extensions
-F IGN switch, keyed, small bezel hole.
I can trade with a perfect F toggle switch + NOS h700 barrel + nos h700 keys; barrel and toggle can be switched in seconds.

TOOLS & ACCESSORIES
-Almost anything correct for a 3/3/42 GPW!
