M38 history

[BCA]

Bill,
Do you have more info to post about your "M38" - it is unlikely to be an M38 if the CFR number is 53-35521. Most M38's were 1952 (CFR number 52-3xxxx but a few were 1951 with CFR numbers 51-33xxx. Is it an M38A1? What do the brass data plates on the dash say: model? date? serial number?
Does anyone out there have a 1951 Canadian M38? I have been trying to track the few 1951 Willys production M38's that the Canadian army used. CFR's appear to be 51-33xxx. The brass serial number plate is an original US production plate but interestingly the weight and dimension plate refers to "M38 CDN". There is probably a brass plate on the frame showing the serial number and a CFR number.
