Gorden:
Thank you for the information. Couple of further things. The hood numbers on my carryall "209007 US" seem to be out of the number range that you supplied (20260793 to 20261257). Is that common or what? My number is 2 digits short also. I found the number in 3 places on the carryall so I know that it is the correct number. It had all the original paint on it and I sanded down through the layers (It had two layers of OD followed by a white layer then by a tannish layer then a grayish color then by a civilian green color)
Additionally, is there any way to tie the frame number to the original engine number? I am wondering if I have the original engine. Is there also a way to get a date of manufacture or an approximate date?
