So, a bit of background since this thread is spanning nearly 6 pages.

I built one good M151A2 from 2 x Demilled Units. Essentially, I used the Power Pack and components from one out of Gagetown, and the Body Tub from another from Calgary.

Mike McKinley was gracious enough to provide me with the Data Plate for the Gagetown unit (CFR 09782 from 403 OTS).

The other had no CFR or Serial Number provided. It did however have the original Odometer and TAC Markings which indicated it was C/S 9A from 1 Service Battalion. Scouring the paint did not reveal any other covered over markings. For all intents and purposes, it was a one VMO, one C/S Vehicle.

I spent a few hours on EDR Viewer, and was able to narrow down to a single M151A2 from 1 Service Battalion which had last maintenance entry mileage within a few hundred miles of where it is now. There was little evidence that it had been driven at all, since it was scrapped from the CF. Previous owner never had it running, and none of the others from 1 Service Battalion came within 5000 miles.

So, I think I may have found the origin of the Body Tub:

CFR 74-09195, Serial Number 43813

One last thing I was thinking of doing was comparing the Mod History of this CFR to the list of M151A2 CFTO Mods. I can visually verify if the Mods were done. Heres the hold up, I have the list of completed mods from EDR, but I don't actually know what the Mod Numbers mean.

Here is list of completed mods:

30010000CF003,
30105000CF001,
30105000CF003,
30105000CF004,
30105000CF005,
30105000CF006,
30105000CF007,
30105000CF008,
30105000CF012,
30105000CF013,
30105000CF016, and
30105000CF017.

Thanks

Scotty
