Hi Richard
I no longer have access to the database, so one of the other guys will have to look it up for you. The best they will find for info is the releasing base before it was sold. Between that and any tac signs on the vehicle, it should be possible to figure out what unit had it.
Odds are it was not in Cypress. Is there any sign of it having been painted completely white at one time?
When I was in Cypress many years back, there was still evidence of the M38A1s which served there: they had been cut up several times until there was nothing useable left on them. The turks were still using Willys at the time, and I guess we did not want to appear to be favoring one side by providing a source of parts to them.
There were no block heaters on the Jeeps. Is the block heater you are talking about one of those types which went in place of a head bolt? Or are you talking about the tap that allows coolant to the heater. My personal preference for a block heater in the Willys has always been the type you spliced into the lower rad hose.
