CFR's with YY-33XXX series
Frank,
My posting was not clear: I was referring to all M38 and M38A1 jeeps with CFR's of the format YY-33xxx; not just Willys. I propose that a block of CFR's ending in 3xxx was used for a variety of general uses: initially for Canada's 1951 Willys jeeps and later possibly for Ford jeeps that may have had special equipment added or had been rebuilt and assigned a new CFR.
There are several photos of M38's with recoiless rifles in Germany in the 1960's with CFR's: 51-33293, 51-33368 etc.: most certainly Willys M38.
There are at least three 1951 Willys M38's in Ontario with 51-33xxx.
Chris Vickery posted on MLU of his Willys M38A1: 53-33136.
