My 1943 GPW next to my new 2020 Gladiator. The GPW is one of 414 radio Jeeps out of 278,000 Ford built during WWII. Radio Jeeps have a 12V PTO driven generator between the seats charging 2 bed mount 6V batteries powering a 12V fender mounted radio. Radio still works. Purchased the JT so I could pull pull the GPW on a 19 foot car hauler, brakes on both axles. Total weight 4000 lbs. Should be a comfortable weight to pull.
