Application
Willys MB and Ford GPW (1941-1945). Fits both early and late production vehicles.
Installation notes
Welding required. Panel is welded directly into the lower cowl zone between windscreen and dashboard. Check of fit accuracy before welding is essential. Touch-up work on weld seams and panel gaps may be necessary, which is normal for aftermarket bodywork.
Compatibility
Specific to Willys MB and Ford GPW 1941-1945. This panel fits vehicles with original Willys, Ford or composite (ACM) bodies. For the right-hand side (passenger side), a separate right cowl panel is required.
Historical context
The cowl side panel with step was a distinctive element of the WWII Jeep body and contributed to the rigidity of the chassis. The step made entry easier and was often heavily loaded, making damage and rust common restoration points.
