ford gpa g504

Anybody have a spare? I know its probably a longshot.... I need both pieces, this is the rear pair where one of them has the ears for the drive line tunnel.... Many thanks

Cheers,
Tony

Many Thanks guys.... I know I had this piece somewhere.... just can't seem to find it at the moment...

Thanks,
Tony

Hello,

Could somebody send me a picture of what the rear ring holding the rear boot to the hull looks like.... Also there are tabs on the tube that the rear prop shaft (non-marine) goes through.... where do these tabs attach to?

Thanks,
Tony

They are the same as the gpw...

Its just the GPA starting handle... one end is square to fit into this gear through the inspection cover in the floor.

Hey guys, I just cut the tunnel out of one of my scrap hulls. It still has the propeller, propeller shaft, and dogbone shaft, I took the castle nut off the end of the shaft where the propeller is, should the propeller just come off? I know there is a woodruff key in there to stop the prop from spinn...

Here are pics of the restoration of GPA 2196 http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c327/GPA2196/8d41d3ad.jpg http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c327/GPA2196/1e8b5cc2.jpg http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c327/GPA2196/3e7f848e.jpg http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c327/GPA2196/821f1f7f.jpg http://i30.phot...

I have the screws and flat fasteners, if anybody needs pictures as well...

Sounds great. I do appreciate it. Now where is the material available? My remnants are similar to corrugated cardboard with an outer heavier black cardboad outer layer. Any sources for the stuff? I imagine its the same as the MB/GPW firewall pad material?

Thanks,
Tony

Leo,

Could you send a copy to Tony@verticalthought.com as well?

Many Thanks,
Tony

Bob, Thanks for the suggestion... however I don't think it will work since the front mount for the generator is connected to the engine, and can not be spaced away from the block... the generator mount on the block is only for the rear generator mount, if you know what I mean... am I missing somethi...

Bob,

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately my belt is an original right
out of one of my spare parts kits (sealed).
I may try another of my belts and or a GPW... indeed there is
not much room for adjustment.

Thanks,
Tony

Bob, Looks great. Could you tell me if you had problems mounting your generator? I have mine on but even with the generator all the way out resting on the engine mount I have too much slack in the belts. I wonder if I am missing something? Here are some pictures to show what I mean. http://i28.photo...

Dominique, Thanks for the compliments :) I'm very excited. My top generator bracket was fabricated off of a pattern from Steve Barbers original. Dennis Francis who is restoring my GPA, made it for me. I believe he can make another one if you call him. He is located in the USA (central time zone GMT ...

Hello, Here are some pics of GPA 2196 coming together. I hope to have it done by June 2006. The chasis is done and ready to go! http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c209/fordgpa/tony1.jpg http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c209/fordgpa/tony2.jpg Now for the hull which is in progress, we decided to repla...
