The serial number of the frame that the body was on is GPW 108532. I found a close serial number that had a DOD of 4-17-43.

Oh crap! Did I weld that one up?!

I just went out and looked....don't see any evidence on the backside that I did. I believe they were present from March through August, so I wonder if my tub is earlier. For all practical purposes this tub is identical to my script tub but without the script. Sadly the data plate were long gone so it can't be dated other than by the frame serial number and the assumption that the two have been together sice day one.

Back to the tub for sale....
