Re: casted ore stamped(pressed) wing screws air cleaner
Seems like everybody has their own opinion, these guys say cast.

Years ago i came up with cast, anybody have proof? lots of research books out there, anybody ever read any of them?

For what it’s worth I’ve seen 2 unrestored midland frame gpws in the last year that both had cast wing bolts. Sorry don’t remember #s.

Mine are cast or forged.

Re: casted ore stamped(pressed) wing screws air cleaner
The general thinking is cast is early BUT, the stamped style bolt head is very similar to the AC air filter central bolt head. So maybe it's not a part evolution as maybe an alternative on the blueprints or a Willys versus Ford part?

Just to stir the debate a little. In John Farleys Standardised Jeep book. His engine bay shot of a "Mid 42" GPW (one piece Upper hose ,Ring oil filler
spark plug caps ect ) clearly shows Stamped/pressed wing nut. Maybe a VEP V EP gpw thing? Plant v plant thing?
