Canadian M38A1

[Comox Air Force Museum]

Hi Guys. Hope this may help. Direct from Ford of Canada. Trucks were built from 11-28-52 till 3-24 53. Serial numbers from 200041 to 200750. I just recieved a Christmas flyer from Brian Asbury and he lists five brass Data plates for M38A1 CDN for $110.00 CDN The reason I was interested in this truck is we have one at our museum and they are very rare. The truck were delivered to 27 ORD DEP in London Ont. and sent out from there. Rob

Checked our jeep today. Serial number 200615 CFR 53-32833. Your truck CFR 53-32631 is 202 ahead of ours. Not sure if CFR numbers were asigned in sequence the same as serial numbers, but hope this helps. Also our build date is 3-24-53 the last day of production acording to Ford. Rob

Mick. If you like, I can take a close up shot of the data plates. That way you can stamp them the same as original. Any pictures of your truck for us to see. Rob
