You are not alone!
I suggest that you contact the Atlantic Canada Military Vehicle Association
(ACMVA). An e-mail link is on my web site on the following page.

If you are REALLY serious about MV collecting, a 1942 Willys MB which I used
to own, and which served at Debert Nova Scotia in 1943 with Divisional
Signals, 7 Canadian Division is for sale on the WEST coast. Contact me for
more info if interested.
A photo and contact information is at

APR 30/May 1 and about 10 more on May 16 due to a server problem. If you
sent me a message during that time that was not answered, please resend it.
Thanks.
