Request for Info
After reading all the requests for CFR numbers I feel a little intrusive. However It seems I have received more information and help from this forum in the last couple of months than my searching in over a year. I live in Connecticut, United States and bought a M38A1 which I believe is a CDN2.
It was purchased by the previous owner from Canada a couple of years ago. I am a member of the Connecticut Military Vehicle Collectors Inc of which I am proud to have been a past president. The chance to restore a Canadian jeep is exciting to me. All too many times I've seen the pratice of a restored USA jeep mounted with machine guns and Military Police markers. It would have you think every jeep was a gun jeep. So the chance to make an histortic Canadian jeep is exciting. I have been told the CFR numbers on it are wrong. The color is wrong and other marking are wrongand placement is wrong. The number on it is 67-97211. I was told the number should be 67-07740 So I'll ask for as much info on this jeep as I can, so as I can make it back to the way it was equiped with the units it was in. Hopefully late 60s. So here are the facts. Data plate indicates the jeep was made NOV 67, Ser # is 7105-97211. Vehicle has a SMG holder on the dash. Also has butt plate holder on the floor on the passenger side. Right side of vehicle has welded holes in the pattern and placement of a machine gun mount. Two more holes just forward of slave cable recepticle.e That's it. I wish to thank the people who have helped me in the past and and in the future. Bob Last edited by BOBM35A2; 16-04-10 at 02:10. Reason: add website www.comvec.org |

I've got your info. Won't have time today to edit, but I should have it posted by Wednesday. Your Iltis spent some time touring Yugoslavia around 1995 according to some of the info. BOBM35A2 - I have copied the info for CFR# 67-07740 - but to confirm it's the correct info, the Jeep should have a VIN of 7105-97211. If you can check if that matches, then I will post up your info around Wednesday as well. Cheers, Craig |

Hello Craig
Do not want ot overload you but I just picked up anouther Iltis and M101 CDn2 Trailer. Both have white paint under thier curent coats of paint. The Vin for the Iltis is BI01-02-85-86536 for a CFR of 86536 The Serial for the trailer is 0289 Both units were disposed at Michener Allen in Edmonton AB. Hopefully that will narrow the search for the trailer Thanks Matthew |
