Hi guys, slowly but surely, i'm making progress .... but there are some things that puzzle me ! For instance : - can anyone tell me how the wire from the fuelsender is routed ? Is this through the chassis ? Glenn a late model is not through the frame chassis but with the other wires through the rai...

Hi guys, For the rainy weather I made a Jeep canvas top off my MB to fit on my GPA. The only thing I had to make were bows,3 more hole in the canvas at the windowscreen and some brackets at the back. I managed to do this without drilling extra holes in the GPA. A few small brackets I had to make wic...

I have a question about the bolts that are used on the lower generator bracket. I know the gpa bracket is a little longer then the bracket on the gpw engine. I mean the bolts that are put trough the rubber rings on the bracket, are these special bolts the same as on gpw engines or are they differen...

Also any idea on where to find this material today? Or a close equivalent? Thanks, Tony Tony, I was miss...

I am probably not the only one as this is the weak part in the GPA. Cheers Jerome Jerome , The making off those panels was no fun :evil: , ...

Hi all, After removing a lot off the wrong made body work I started repairing the hull off Leo s gpa . It is a lot off work and measuring and trying to make the parts as good looking GPA as they should be. The left side is almost finished now ,everything is in its place .

It are those b...
