I'm trying to find an ashtray for my 1947 First GMC EC-101. I can't find one in any of the catalogs. I'm finding out very quickly that some parts for this model are much harder to find than 1947 +. Any tips would be appreciated. Thanks. -DD

THe only way I've seen new ones listed is included with speaker grill. I believe it was at classicindustries.com If you weren't looking to spend 100+ you can probably gat a used one at a swap meet.

David, Your 47 first is going to be the same as a 46 so you might try searching for a 46 ash tray. I think I have an extra handle for one. If you are interested let me know.

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.

That's a good question. I wonder if it would. It seems that it may not because of the different cab style, but maybe that's feature that wasn't changed. I'll do some research. Thanks for the offer. I may take you up on that.

Here's 2 places to check. Depending which coast your closer to, there's Tom Meyers Truck Parts in Miami, OK. or Adlers Antique Auto Parts in Stephentown, NY. Both are great sources & I have used both with terrific results. Good luck.
