Paul,
Do you also have the front and rear vertical battery box armor plates?  How about the front and rear lower brackets?

I don’t make those pieces new because there is almost no call for them. It’s only the top and side armor that’s usually missing. I actually might have some of those pieces that are original from a Halftrack I dismantled. I can check if you want me to.

I have them but about an 1/8"-3/16" is rusted away at the bottom.  I can have them made locally but if you have them and they're in good shape I'd be interested.
