			Need some help, mates: 
		
		
		
			I’m looking for this fellow who may be a member here or on other club sites: Ed Smith M 38 CDN Jeep CFR No 52 -32152 Ontario Canada Registration To make a long story short and keep people’s attention, I think he has a data plate that may go with my M38. It would help to solve a puzzle and maybe get these two together again. Anyone who has a suggestion on how to get in touch with him (or any lead whatsoever) I’d much appreciate it.

			The CFR number you posted is missing a digit.

			52-32152 is an unusually high CFR number that I have not seen reported previously. I do not think it is related to any M38CDN ever owned by the late Ed Smith of Toronto, but any further clues to this jeep would be interesting.

			Near the bottom of the referenced document (above weblink), there seems to be documented CAR numbers for M38CDN's up to 52-32068. That is 84 digits off the number in question.

			The c.a.r# for this m38cdn sounds quite leglt to me caus its only 2 numbers off mine..I put 52-32154 back on the road this spring..I'm told mine spent most of its life in London near the armory..id assume there's a good chance that's where 52-32152 originates from as well.
