Ford electrical box ID
These pics were sent to me by Diego in Argentina who is restoring a F15.
He tells me these are common on Fords in Argentina, yet I have never seen one on a vehicle or in a parts book I had thought it may have come from a Lynx, or is it possible these are part of the last design updates to waterproof electrical systems?

Hi Keith,
It's a part of the special wadeproof equipment for CMP. |

Ford Wood Burner???
The front cover makes the Ford look like its got a wood stove in the cab!!! I've seen sheds with chimneys like that!
Seriously, very interesting info: and not something I (or, it seems, Keith) have ever seen in Australia. How common are the waterproofing kits in other parts of the world? Mike C |

I just sold my minto Ford welder truck to Dirk and it was wade proofed. It had all the vents and special fuel caps still intact. The only thing missing from original was one vent cap that I was able to buy from Chris Vickery. Maybe when Dirk returns from his holiday he will post some photos.
