Trade new recored MB radiator for good GPW radiator

Post by eagleredleg64 » Fri Jul 08, 2022 5:57 am

I purchased a GPW that has been disassembled for sandblasting and it had a MB radiator in it. I took the MB radiator to a radiator shop and found out it had to be recored. Not that I have to have a GPW radiator but just looking. Thanks!

What year GPW? See what Jeepdraw has to say about MB radiators in GPW's;

Willys Radiators On Fords

*** Updated Aug 2010 Ford document show the MB radiator became optional on the GPW in late '43. Most '44 and '45 GPWs have been found with MB radiators . The Colour was still OD, NOTE BELOW FOR EXCEPTIONS RICHMOND PLANT

Looks like you have a 44 gpw according to your past posts. This reply of Michael O's to an older post might be of interest to you.
