What is it?

Happy Thanksgiving day to our Canadian family!

I have a part to my truck that I cannot for the life of me remember what it was or where it went. I suppose this happen when you take something apart quite a few years ago, move and have other life stuff happen.

Could you guys let me know what this is please?




Thanks guys!

It sort of looks like a defector that sat in front of the battery tray that sits under the passenger side. I believe my 56 had one of those.

I think it’s the splash shield that goes under the generator

I`ll have a look at my 56 F350 to see if it has this.

My guess is a splash or heat shield, but looking through the manual, I didn't see anything. I do appreciate the help!
I also forgot, this is for my 1960 F100.

I'm guessing a heat shield.

I realize this is an old thread. You know when you walk by something a bunch of times and not give it a second thought? Well it happened. I was walking in my mini junkyard. and there it was. The tab on the right side is busted off but still there. I believe that is the one you were asking about? This was on a 59. It's got some dings and bings but it looks like it

So that's protecting the glass bowl on the fuel pump? Maybe I should get one with all the gravel roads I drive.

Tell you what. Since you need it more than I do, send me shipping costs and it's yours!

Yep, goes under the generator, bolted to the frame.
