Hi Jon
The interesting part to me about MVS is trying to decipher the riddles often posed by the addition or deletion of certain items over their lifespan.
From what I have gathered in my studies of the M38A1, is that they were used over a vast span of time, transferred, bastardized etc.
My 1970 shows signs for example of having the fire extinguisher mounted in both locations, once between the seats and once on the dashboard...
This 1971 I have picked up has its mysteries, perhaps once Scott gets back to me with the CFR info some will be solved.
My 1970 was proven to be an ex militia 1Hussars recce jeep before it ended life in the motor pool at CFB Borden prior to disposal. It is undergoing restoration back to its former glory.
Sadly, I think the 1971 will be relegated to parts only as its pretty tough...
