LOOK WHAT I FOUND

Post by Joe Gopan » Mon Jun 17, 2019 5:12 pm

I was cleaning my MB the other day and discovered this under the seat. DeRuyter, maybe?
I keep a piece of rubber matting under the seats to protect the paint on the seat pans and forgot about the stencil.
The gas sender protector is scheduled to be installed in the near future. It's GPW and is not stamped wth Ford ID. Supposedly it carries a GTB number also.

Im more curious about the "do not overfill" stencil Joel. I havent seen that one before. Was this a commonly used stencil ?

It looks like a post war text you see more commonly on M38A1 and M151. Some people's Jeeps take about a week to read :D

looks like the upper photo on age 191, "MARQUEGES ET ORGANISATION" U.S. Army, (ETO 1944-45) by Becker. :wink:
I still think bought the stencil from DeRuyter. I am not much of a stencil fanatic.
