Default m37 truck

I am on my way to buy another m37 weds, I have a nice one restored and now I found another with a Braden Winch, I just have to have... body looks great and only has a electric problem which could be the coil as he has very little spark, but it turned over so I am hooked and believe that it will run and be on the road in a few months... will try to post some pics of the two of them if I can figure it out, or will send them to someone that can post them for me...

Frame and axles are painted just waiting on funds to replace brake and fuel lines as well as wiring harness. I will post pics of painted frame and axles when I have more time.
Thanks.

Thanks for posting pics. I can't wait to find an M37 of my own and do the same type of frame off resto. The boss said an M37 is a go if I can find a decent one for a good price. Now to finish the deuce and make room. I'm gonna watch your progress... as always, the more pics the better.
