Not necessarily a post war update, my cgt was rebuilt in 44, one must not forget that modification happen a lot during their up to 5 year war service, and the mod might have been locally made and not documented by official orders or instructions.

Hello,
I go on restoring my Ford and I managed to find frame and engine serial numbers. Does anybody know whether it's possible to find out some information from it?
Also I have two early dashes. One has common switches and the other one has unusual pull/push switches (see the pictures). I have never seen one like this but it is original Ford. Has anybody seen it? Do you think it's suitable for my car? It is in better condition so I would like to use it...
Unfortunatelly I have no dash plate with serial number. Does anybody know whether it's possible to buy a replica?
And I still look for any information about original wiring (placing and connection)...
Thanks for any answer,
Zdenek

Ford Cab 11 have the push/pull switches, while the Cab 12 and later models went to up/down toggle switches.

Keith Webb (a member on here) has a variety of new old stock serial number plates available. See post #6 in THIS THREAD.

I have publications plates for most Ford models and also the one stating where it was made. All NOS. There are a few blanks with the vehicle ID.
