Looking deep into the Maint records, it appears that this 38A1 actually belonged to 1 Hussars in London prior to going to Borden. Sadly, it appears much of the maint info was never entered, as i'm sure there was plenty more work and mods done to it prior to disposal. The disposal date was actually 9 Sept 88, so this made it one of the last to go to auction.

UPDATE: I bet these guys would be happy to see you turn it back into an Armd Recce Jeep that it most likely once was: http://www.firsthussars.ca/the-museum

Scotty

I just recently aquired the used vehicle information package on this one and note a slight discrepancy from your data Scotty, wondering if you may shed some light on it. It appears that my jeep was registered on 3 June 1988 by the civilian owner.

Your records indicate disposal 9 Sept 88. Would it be possible that the disposal records take a bit of time to be updated before being struck off of service following auction???
