Frame and engine serial numbers

[Gizzard]

Hi y’all, I’m new here I’m working on a restoration of a m38a1 and would like to find out more about it. All data plates and patent plates are missing.

Frame is stamped with the following numbers:

2411-21-002
**0-2A7556

First two digits of the second row are illegible due to a bubba weld. I can make out part of the numerals and they seem to indicate a C or 0 for first digit and L or E for the second digit.


Engine number is:

MD 85945

I searched thru the serial number data bases I had access to but quickly found I didn’t know what the heck to look for.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance, Gizzard
