ford gpa g504

Too bad I missed this meeting, maybe in October I will come to Ciney again after some years of absence.

Cees,

I have that pipe, will take some photos and measeruments later this week for you.

Eric,

I will be more then happy to help you out with the restoration on your GPA.
Any info you need or any questions you may have now or in the future let me know.

If you want to visit my GPA project, you are allways welcome.

Great collection Eric, nice finds, thanks for sharing.

Some more progress made. Due to the cold wheater it took a little longer then I hoped. All brake lines, tubes and brakes shoes attached: http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d23/leoverhagen/aanv3.jpg Front wheels and tires mounted. It almost looks like a car now http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d23/le...

That is great Peter, I was still looking for the info you requested, but I can stop my search now.

My GPA is going great now, as soon as the ice is melted and better wheater is there it can go for watertight testing.
I will give you a call at that time.

Hello Mithril,

I hope you can complete your GPA project one day, so we can drive and swim together.

Looks great David, the hardest part of the work has been done now.

Only your wiper handle is broken off.
I can see the same on this WWII GPA Photo:

Hi Bill,

Ok, you meant the lower bracket, sorry for my mistake. So far Scootopia doesn't make these as far as I know.
You can easely adjust a standard jeep bracket, the one on a GPA is 1" longer, so just weld a piece of the same thickness steel to it and you are done.

Bill,

At this place you can find a good repro, look at "shop":

Thanks for allr your compliments, it keeps me motivated to go on. Soon I will post some more progress. Dominique and Glenn, I really look forward to go in the water together one day Michael, I will make a list of the difficulties I have faced along the way. I will post that list somewhere next week....

David,

Will the doors/covers fit over the holes or not? If they do fit, I would leave it that way.
But it is up to you off course. I have a later type floor panel, the holes were factory made and more rectangular/square in shape.

David, The red one 40 amps is mounted on my weasel indeed. It is now black off course. But I was told (never found any records of that) that 40 amps regulators were on early weasels and GPA's and that later 50/55 amps regulators were used on later type weasels and GPA's. Does anyone has more info ab...
