Hello Bob,

I'v never seen these parts on my GPA, so Ican't help you.
Maybe early GPA parts?

Hi Bob,

Never seen before these parts!
Could be early GPA (!?!) according Bob but ...the best is to look arround in- or outside your GPA to try to find matching holes somewhere.
With a little fantasy it could be a trailer- E-plug-protection-plate or else. Above the deck-plate or under. I realy don,t know!
Try to find out of the holes are matching with the rear light brackets lamp holes.
Also possible f.i. a selfmade bracket for an extra eletrical pump under the floor plates. Or even to mount or protect radio-equipment.
You also can think its all for a GP or early GPW modification work order. (Measurements ???)
I hope for you, another lister can help you to give the right answer. Jaap Rietveld from Belgium (early GPA-owner) can be that man!
Kind Regards,
Jan

Hello I know this is a little late in responding but I'm new! Lol

I do know what the second picture is, it is a wiring protective plate used on the M151 a1 jeeps the two holes on the bottom of the plate bolt up to the back of the taillight's on the studs, sitting upright inside the back of the fender and the wiring connectors between the harness & light are tucked in between the plate and the body . This keeps the wiring connections from being exposed to the elements.

Not sure what the first picture is ? rolley

Best regards
David
