In all likelihood the prefix on yours will be 67, but being so close to the end of the year it may also be 68. Somewhere in my mess of papers I think I have some of the old Crown Assets sales sheets which might give a breaking point for the 67/68 prefix. I believe the prefix had more to do with when the vehicle was taken in to service than the year it was built. I had seen commercial vehicles with the next year prefix assigned to them; not often but it did exist.

I have seen numbers very similar to that used on the plates available at various hardware stores.

Thanks to BB3 I had a chance to see my M38A1 in detail. The CFR number I previously quoted is on the windshield frame, however, this is a replacement and the jeep's actual CFR is 67-07800. These numbers can be seen on the rigth side sill.
Jeep is scheduled to go to Don Dingwall's for some work.

Hi,
I own M38A1Cdn2, Serial Number 7105 06879, CFR 67-07832, It was manufactured in November 1967. So the cutoff for starting CFR 68 must be farther back behind me.
