Unless the vehicle was still serving on or after 1977, there will be no records in the EDR viewer for it. Most likely this vehicle would not have lasted that long, although a few did. I went to the regular force as a mechanic in 1981. We still had the odd vehicle around from the 50s and even the 40s. Some that come to mind was an old IH refueling tender we held in war storage dated around 1956, and when I worked for a short while in Portage la Prairie, we still had an old 1948 IHC firetruck on the base. As well, there were a few WW2 trailers kicking around the reserve units including a Ben Hur trailer with welder at Minto Armouries, and a P15-comp trailer up at Flin Flon, which I now own. But the odds of a 57 panel truck surviving that long is pretty slim.
