They are stamped differently, have less radius on edges(sharper corners), and look different. NOS originals are hard to find, French ones do show up. I have both stored away, NOS as keepers, French ones are for sale.

That's good Joel, because not everyone has a completely NOS vehicle and want a CCKW that is presentably complete in order to preserve history. It is a good thing that you have had the foresight to stockpile these items in order others can benefit from your knowledge and supply of parts.

Hindsight is 20-20. The credit goes to the US ARMY.
