Installation notes
Remove damaged original panel by drilling out or grinding off spot welds. Dry-fit new panel, check fitment and spot-weld at designated locations. Finish with primer and body paint.
Compatibility
Specific to early Ford GPW jeeps (production 1942-early 1943) without step plate. Later production GPWs and Willys MB often had different cowl panel configurations with integrated step plate. Check your vehicle beforehand for correct version.
Historical context
Ford produced its own bodywork for the GPW from early 1942 to September 1943, with different variants throughout the production period. Early models had different body details than later ones, including the absence of the step plate on the earliest series.
