Model History and Information: Ford developed the GPA as an amphibious version of the Jeep for the U.S. Army during the Second World War. Its boat-shaped hull and propeller allowed it to travel on roads and water, though it was less successful than the larger DUKW. The title's identification of Ford GPA gives the model a defined setting. It preserves a specific historical subject whose historical value comes from the relationship among technology, operator and time rather than from the outline alone.
