ford gpa g504

Finally the drawings of the three firewall pads. All measurements are in metric milimeters......





Gents, I hope you have enough information to reproduce them yourselfs. The firewall under the dash is a good frame, you can easy determine where all the holes should be.

Hi Leo,

thanks for the effort !

Could you also indicate the overall dimensions ? Otherwise its difficult to determine the angles :?

Thanks,
Glenn

Hi Glenn,

As I mentioned before I think it is possible to get the overall dimensions from the dash firewall itself, but if it helps I will provide them after the next weekend.

Thanks Leo , for making us all share ,all this info , and all the work to provide it !! .......That's the great thing about the forum !! . :D :D :D
Do you know of anyone, who might be able to get the right materiel , and to reproduce them.?? !.....I'd be definitly interested !!.
Kind regards Dominique

Leo and All,

First many thanks for all these great pics, and measurements.

During the Dayton MVPA convention I spoke with Paulo Batisti about reproducing this pad for us. He told me he thought he could...

I would like to put all of the pictures we have together and see what he thinks. I would also like to see the level of interest in these, my thoughts were to have them made without the holes so that alignement could be done on the vehicle.

Once we have a number of people interested perhaps we can get a price and timetable. He is located in Italy and thought having an original would be best but thinks he could do it off pics and measurements.

Also Leo, I am having trouble downloading the middle pic of the measurements, it cuts off halfway.

What does everybody think?

Tony

I assume nobody is interested? Is this board still being monitored? I've seen more GPA related posts lately on G503....

Tony

Tony,
It is a bit quiet at this time but the board is still alive. :D
We could use more members indead 45 is not big. :lol:
it is Amphip in Italy and holiday time in most parts of europe . :roll:

cheers Peter

Ahhh... Thanks for update Peter... I usually check the board twice a day... just figured everybody else was just as obsessed :)

Tony

Thanks Tony for the info ; Still very interested , in a repro firewall pad !!!
Dominique

Dear Peter,

Still here but busy at work. I would be interested in a firewall pad repro, depending on price. Put me on the list as "tentative".

Cheers

Jerome Stevens

BTW I too cannot see half of the second picture

Hi Tony,

sorry for the late reply, but i would also be interested in the firewall .... depending on price and delivery term. (I'm in the process of assembling the dashboard ..... :P )

Cheers, :wink:
Glenn

Great guys,

Leo could you send me the full copy of the middle picture of the measurements from above? The middle picture is cut off for me.

Thanks,
Tony

Tony,
Just back from Italy, put me on the list for 2 sets if the price is right.

Hello Tony and Jerome,

I'm one of these European guys that has just came back from hollidays (I visitid the Normandy beaches in France). I did discover 3 new WWII Original GPA photos from the normandy beaches, always so far only one was known. I will post these three later.

As for the middel photo of the firewall pad, I will have to look that one up and repost it, I will get back to you on that too within a few days, OK?

Tony,

Put me down for a firewall pad too.

John :D

Many thanks Leo, welcom back :) .... yep gotcha John... it sounds like we have at least 5 interested... I will have to check on price and shipping once I get the final pictures from Leo...

Thanks,
Tony
