There's an article in the latest Fine Scale Modeler magazine on upgrading Tamiya's old Ford GPA, if anyone's interested. Pretty well-done, I thought.

Hi Barry
Glad you mention it. I got a Eduard set & a set of resin tires with chains & am contemplating on overhauling my GPA Jeep. []
Which issue is it? Hope I still can get a copy of it.
Regards

T Lee, it's the March 2008 FSM issue. 6 pages, goes into a fair amount of detail. The article inspired me to do one also, I haven't started yet but have gathered AM goodies. I also have the Eduard set you've posted, wasn't easy to find. Thachweave does a bumper set for the GPA that you may want to consider, it's quite good.
Those resin wheels look familiar, I believe I have them. Tank Workshop? Looking forward to seeing pics of your overhauled Seep!
