CFR Request Thread

[Sean McKee]

Scott, I was up at Brian Asbury’s today and we looked at an original AM General data plate from a Canadian contract M151A2 which was a proper 5-digit serial stamped on the data plate. There is a corresponding Ziebart plate with a 74-9XXXX number that was written on the back, so our assumption is on my jeep is that whoever restored it put on a replacement data plate and used the CFR number as part of a “self-created” VIN in order to register it with the Ministry of Transportation in Alberta or BC.

Is it possible for you to use what I am assuming to be the vehicle CFR (74-95012) to check the database to find the 5-digit serial?

Unfortunately the CFR (74-95012) you are hoping to use for your M151A2 was actually assigned to a piece of road construction equipment.

Hey Ed,

could you do a look up on an Iltis?
CFR is 87666
Unit would be either 1 MP Regt, 15 MP Coy or 12/11 MP PL.

Cheers!

Vik you know as much as I do, your MP Iltis was disposed of from ASU Chilliwack in January 2007.

The VMOs show it was part of 12 MP platoon in the latter part of it's life. Right towards the end it was also sent to the BCDs for a conversion course.

Vik,

Check you work email account for the link to the EDR. You will be able to view the available VMOs.

hi, I just purchased a M101 3/4ton trailer, it's a 1981 made by Manac, serial number is FA44

somebody have informations on this trailer ?

I would like to know the CFR number, and the nomenclature (ex: M101 or M101A1, CDN or CDN2, etc.) thanks

[Ed Storey]

Your Manic M101 Model 40108 Trailer serial FA44 was CFR 81-44116. It was accepted in April 1982 and disposed of from CFB Valcartier in April 2000.

[longbranch]

86-88187 is the Iltis in question. Tailgate model.

[Ed Storey]

Iltis 88187 ECC 121527 (Military Police version) was in service from April 1987 until it was disposed of from ASU/CFB Edmonton in November 2005.
C-30-109-000/ME-003 Installation Instruction Military Police Kit Installation, For Truck, Utility, Light, 4x4 Military Design, Iltis Canadian was first published in 1986.

Trying again to see if this is a serial number for my M251A2.

I found “42323” on a plate on the transmission, so wondering if that could be it. I know SN should be on the body tub - mine shows 74-95011292 on the tub. You’ve said that number isn’t in the CFR database, but I guarantee that this is a former CF machine.

Could you check to see if 42323 could be the assigned CF serial?

Thanks!
Sean

Unfortunately 42323 does not fall within the CFR range for Canadian M151A2s.

[Sean McKee]

Lost to the ages I guess.

Thanks

Would it be possible to find information on an Iltis BI01-11-84-86115, CFR 86115?

Or CFR 86454 ?

I would really appreciate any information available.

Thanks!
