Thanks to Rob and David - I went and dug out some of the stash of blueprints I received from Alex Blair's collection to look at their numbering. One drawing in particular caught my eye...
Drawing number C-321587 originally issued on paper marked as the Army Engineering Design Branch, crossed out and stamped as the Directorate Of Vehicle Development, Q.M. G. Branch, Dept. of National Defence has a reference to GM part 5820086 and depicts a "Flange-Transmission-Drive-Shaft". This drawing is dated 5-2-47. Definite proof that the format of "C-######" was used to number drawings within the AEDB and QMG Branch, including automotive parts. A very quick check in several CMP and GM armoured vehicle manuals didn't find 5820086. Hopefully someone else will have better luck finding the application of GM part 5820086...

Based on the drawing, it is actually not to difficult to recreate a condenser can with simple tools and small adjustments to the design

Nicely done. Would it be possible for you to explain a bit more in detail how you made the edge around the can?

Hi Jordan
I cheated, compared with the original design. I experimented to started with trying to do it correctly, but I simply could not get the metal moved first one way and then back around without everything bulging out. I found I really need a Shrinker/Stretcher for that. I opted to make each end in "three" pieces, a central lid, the wall and then a outstrip, and then spotwelded everything together, then a lot of filing and griding, to remove excess material and creating the shape of a folded edge.
