As the subject says I have a couple of questions. Longtime jeep owner and have lurker often.
i have a 1947 CJ2A - that is what is on the title. The tag on the firewall is missing but the one on the driver side frame is there. This tags indicate a serial # of 15292X which should make the jeep a 1948 model. Did the frame # and the firewall numbers match? I have owner the jeep since 1980. Second question is the wood slats on my hood - were these added post factory? I have not seen these elsewhere but the paint on the supports matches the hood. They sure work well for securing stuff |

The frame and firewall serial numbers should match, unless your jeep has been put together with donor vehicles.
The slats were added by a previous owner to suit a need. not something Willys would have installed.
