[MV] Research ?'s

Hi List,
Has anyone used the National Archives or the US Army Center of Military
History to research their vehicles? If you have; can you provide pointers on
using these resources. I've logged in and found a good start but looks like a
particularly confusing process. Also, I know Ford maintains their own archive
with good materials on jeeps and other war production but can't find a
contact phone number. Any help? The GPW's engine has a rebuild tag stating
the work was done by the "5th US VT Base Shop, Newark, OH" dated 10/16/44. So
far no luck finding out what this unit was etc. Any thoughts? I'll keep you
posted on our research using these sources for our GPW and WC12.

Regards,
