★ Essential for a historically correct restoration of a WWII Dodge WC63 with original shipping markings as they were applied upon departure from the USA.
Application
Dodge WC63 Truck, Cargo and Personnel Carrier, 1½ ton, 6×6 with Winch (G-507), produced 1943-1945. These shipping stencils were applied to both sides of the body, where they were visible to loaders at the port.
Installation notes
Position the stencil at the desired location (usually side panels, rear mudguards or canvas). Fix in place and stencil with white lusterless enamel paint as prescribed in Army Regulations. Allow to dry thoroughly before removing stencil.
Compatibility
Specific to Dodge WC63. The WC63 had a Braden MU2 winch and differed in length and weight from the WC62 (without winch), making the shipping data different. Not compatible with other WC models without modification of the data.
Historical context
Shipping stencils were applied as standard from 1942 to all U.S. Army vehicles prior to overseas shipping. They contained critical logistical data such as weight, dimensions and destination, essential for the enormous logistical operations during D-Day and other invasions.
