    Working on the M37

    The bed stakes form the backrest for the seats. There are military pads for both the seats and the backrests. The vets might appreciate the backrests; but riding (anywhere) is always better than walking. I learned that last bit in the Army.

    The problem I have is the truck receptacle. I need to disassemble some parts and do some grinding / machining so the receptacle door will open fully. Thank you for the offer though!

    Installing Canvas Top on M37

    Wow! :shock: Mine goes on much easier than that, Sorry you had such a hard time. Do you know anyone nearby with a M-37 that could help you? Why do you need a top in Florida anyway? :wink:

    Our M-37's first public outting

    Nice looking M-37. Looks like you are having fun with it, which, imho, is the whole point of owning one. Besides, YOU are command authority now, so you can do whatever you want, since you control the budget too. If you ever are interested in the Marine Corps lifting shackles for the back, I've...

    new to me M37

    Wow, you're almost all done with taking it apart! You have a couple of nice and rare accessories there that I see. The fording shroud around the air cleaner has gotten hard to find for any kind of a reasonable price. The battery box looks pretty good too. Every piece you take off gets you...

    Found 2 bullet holes in the back of my cab

    Well, it adds a little extra "character" to your truck and the basis for lots of "stories". I always enjoy the historical mysteries these trucks seem to acquire. Storm 51

    new to me M37

    Just tag-and-bag and take lots of pictures as you disassemble. Then, read the manuals at night while all the parts are getting cleaned, rebuilt, overhauled, etc. When it's time to put it all back together, use the photos and the manuals and it is pretty easy. These trucks are just not that...

    New to us M37

    That's a very nice little truck! More pictures, especially under the hood would be nice. Did it come from a fire department? That paint makes it look like a fire department truck. Good Luck with your new little truck! Storm 51

    Found 2 bullet holes in the back of my cab

    Were they headed in or out? Sounds like somebody killed a couple of batteries.

    Canvas and paint

    Well, after 9 1/2 months I'm resurrecting a long dead thread because it died with unfinished business. Nattieleather asked to see my truck (I think that's backwards; the truck owns me - I'm the truck's grunt) with the all the M-42 canvas installed. Well, the weekend before this one, I...

    I'll there again, Peter. If I can get the trailer lights working I'll try to bring the trailer with the truck. Storm 51

    M101 Side Gate hinges

    Try Gimpyrob. I just bought 3 sets of gate hardware from him. I would bet he has all the parts and pieces you need.
