    My New toy

    My New toy

    Thanks for the encouragement guys! I'm sorry to report that progress has been slow. For about 5 weeks my M-37 has been at the shop getting a little bit of work done. Fuel line replaced and carb cleaned up (going for a re-build in the spring, so gas doesn't sit all winter), now the stalling...

    Pedestal Mount Searchlight

    Any updates on how this ended up working out? I have downloaded the CAD drawing, and I procured a spotlight...I was going to go to a local welder and see what he said/get a quote soonish. I'd like to be able to show him some high resolution pictures if you got one made...

    M-37 comercial tires...

    I like both STA Superlugs and Power King Super Tractions. I realize both are a little pricey however...doesn't seem you can get any 9.00x16 tires and NOT break the bank! :lol:

    My New toy

    Chugging along. My buddy Rob cut and re-worked a blackout head lamp bracket for me to fit the passenger side, using it for a turn signal bracket. All the wires are secured and run to the rear, connections made. Front harness run and secured, doing under the dash and the ignition next. New...

    My New toy

    Today I got all the soft top tie downs secured back on the truck. Drilled out the broken bolts for the under-the-hood latch and mounted it in place. Called VPW and got a couple brackets ordered. A little progress, but hey I'll take it!
