Restoration of a M38A1-CDN3 106mm recoilless rifle Jeep

[Martin Dauphinais]

Hi Guys,

Happy New Year and lots and lots of military vehicle opportunities!

Long time without giving some news... was just too busy!

I'm waiting to see if I can get all the manuals I need for my Jeep. I badly need them because I'm far to be a good mechanic and I really hope they are idiot proof because I am at this level...

Also, I'm still gathering bits and pieces of what I need to, at least, completing the Jeep's IES. I'm unsure of what I need exactly and don't know if I will find out the answer one day.

However, I would like to know if there is any of you that knows how the ammunition stowage straps work? I do not know if I have to buy them because I do not know if they were in use with the Canadian Forces or if we were using normal cotton straps? If you have answer, please let me know.

Here are the straps I would like to buy...

Also, I'm still looking for some parts;

- Spare rim or with tire on it if you have one available,
- Special bracket to hold the shovel blade on the side of the Jeep,
- ANSUL extinguisher;
- Green fabric tool pouch;
- Light switch, (the one on the Jeep is broken because it turn free, I can't select any of the position.

I'm waiting to hear from you guys! Thanks for your time and advices!
