Hood Bows OFF??
Todays quiz, what are these four Hood Bows off?
7ft wide, just under 5ft high. Two are straight all the way down, two have the dog leg on the bottom. Any ideas? Rich. Hood Bow 001.jpg Hood Bow 007.jpg Hood Bow 008.jpg

Bearing in mind that there are two straight and two doglegs does this still mean Ford?
Also that they seem to be in groups of three or five, not the four here. Been through the Blueprint Victory and have not seen a match. Hard to find a photo with frames but no canvas. I need a definite ID so (Take note Tony) I can try to find a new home for them... One of these bows even has a war wound, a bullet hole through it. Rich.

The bodies were made by different companies so the dogleg isn't a Ford versus Chev thing.
Those bows have the holes to attach the horizontal bars and that started with the 2C1 bodies in 1942. The doglegs might just be an Aussie thing since Military Vehicle Profiles doesn't show any like that.
