★ Reproduction rear panel manufactured to original specifications, with all necessary pressings and pre-drilled mounting points for correct installation.
Application
Suitable for WWII jeep restorations where the original rear panel must be replaced due to rust or damage. Fits various body types from the production period 1941-1945.
Installation notes
Direct weld-in panel. Installation requires welding work and body knowledge. Check the fit before installation and position the panel correctly in relation to the wheel arches and floor. The rear light brackets and L-brackets must be fitted according to original specifications.
Compatibility
Please note: early jeeps (until mid-1942) had a script panel with 'Ford' or 'Willys' stamped on the left side. This is a plain version without script, suitable for later production and composite bodies. Check before ordering which type of rear panel suits your specific restoration.
Historical context
The rear panel was one of the distinctive components where Ford and Willys initially used different versions. From 1944 onwards, composite bodies produced by American Central Manufacturing were used by both manufacturers, with standardised rear panels.
