Hello Fred,

I will take good care of the CB bulb, I haven't seen one before either.
Frank also drove halfway into Florida with these from his place in Georgia, that is what I call deluxe service !!
This was the second time he did this for me with parts, meeting me halfway.

Also Fred, I know you are the master on prototype jeeps, so one of these days I will dig out my prototype Willys, 4x4 station wagon, SUV, that is built on an MB frame.
I found it several years ago in Alabama , it is quite interesting but missing its engine. The T-84 transmission is in it.
In my opinion it has Brooks Stevens written all over it 😁

Best Regards,
Ray

Hello Zeph,

Thanks !
I do still need the driver's side T-207 headlight assembly.
The one I have is the passenger's side. I was able to actually get these parts last weekend when Frank brought them all into Florida, we met halfway and transferred them into my Expedition 😁
Very nice of him !!
I would be greatly interested in getting a driver's side light from you if available !!!

I will send you a PM.

Thanks !!

Best Regards,
Ray

Hello,

Here are 2 pics that I have of a 1941 Honey Comb Dodge pick up truck radiator that I just bought. Once I pick it up, I will have better intel if it is the same type radiator. It came out of a running truck, of which I already picked the engine up, and rolling frame.
The engine is a T-116 engine.
I am hoping this radiator can be used in the Command Car.
I do see 2 soldered on brackets on the top of the radiator, that are deleted on the WC version. But the WC radiator has the indentations to attach the brackets.
