This is interesting as I have found a number stamped on a late CMP Ford chassis, in the same configuration as the Canadian Govt reg number. I will not relate details of the vehicle except what I have already said, but the number is;
87-228

If any of you number crunchers can come up with any records that might tie this number to a vehicle, I would appreciate it. It is stamped on the left hand (pass side) chassis rail, just behind the front shock absorber.
