Hey guys, I'm thinking about showing up at the tacoma mall to convoy south, are we going to just head south on I-5? Will I be able to keep up in my stock M37? On a seperate note, do we need any firewood for the campfire? I've got some extra firewood that I don't need. Thanks, Collin

Yeah, probably WSMVPC then. I've thought about joining both groups, if they would take me, but the West Sound group makes more sense since I'm in Poulsbo and ferry rides are expensive. Do you know if any PSMVCC guys are going to be at the Fort Worden show in June? (sorry to get off topic a bit)...

I would guess that he is one of the WSMVPC guys that did the Armed Forces Day Parade in Bremerton today. Is anybody here a member of WSMVPC? I tried to submit a message on their website and never got a response. I've been hearing rummors about other M37's and jeeps and deuces in Poulsbo and...

I can work with that, I probably won't get around to making them if I have to for a while anyways. I'm too busy getting the truck out of mothballs and shined up for the summer right now. As of today I have buffed all the paintwork once, cut off the home made hardtop that a fire department added...

If nobody else makes or finds a set, I could make up some convoy signs on plywood. I just need the specifications, I know I have seen them online before but I just can't seem to find them right now. I could also make up a set of 12"x18" blue, green, and white/black flags if we want them. Collin

Hi John, I'm from Poulsbo myself, if you have seen an M37 cruising around town, that would probably be me. I'm away at school at the moment but I'll be coming home this week, so I'll be out and about again soon. There is going to be a military truck show at Fort Worden in Port Townsend put...

Srodocker, that sounds good, I'm not sure what my work schedule will be like this summer, but if I can make it I'd like to head south with you on Friday. Collin

I picked up an amber rotator for my M37 if we should happen to need another vehicle with a convoy light. Srodocker, are you are in Tacoma? I plan to drive back roads all the way, if you can stand keeping it under 40 I wouldn't mind the company heading south. I'll probably be coming down...

Thank you anyways CARNAC, I appreciate what you are doing. Collin

Hi CARNAC, I don't know if you will be able to do much with this one but it's worth a try. It's a 1964 Dodge M37B-1 Wo/W. A. Serial- 2668013578 B. Registration- 3E4197 C. NSN-2320005424636 (the truck has FSN 23205424636 on the dash, but this NSN should be correct) D. I purchased the truck...

Thank you for the quick response Aaron, that sounds exellent, I think you can put me down as 'confirmed', I'll try not to slow everybody down too much! Collin

One more PNW'er here I think I can come down from the kitsp peninsula, it'll be really cool to finally meet some of the MV community. One question though, how fast does the convoy move? I might have some trouble keeping up in my stock (read, 'slow')M37... Collin

I remember going through all this stuff with the Washington State laws for my truck. Luckily everything was laid out faily clearly in the RCW's (revised code of washington). A little searching and I think I've found the Florida equivelent in the 'Florida Statutes'. I carry a notecard in my...

I'm in southeast Washington and I've been having the same problem. The best bet I have found so far is Idaho Motor Pool in Fruitland. The shipping is probably still going to hurt a bit though. I'm still looking, I'm hoping I'll find one in a wrecking yard or sitting in a field out here...

It appears to have a rectifier for a 100-amp alternator too. Is that part of the slave kit or would the larger electrical capacity make it a 'master' of sorts?

The tail gate is the worst part of the truck by far, the ends are reinforced and the whole thing is warped, not enough to warrent replacement, not yet anyways... There is a tailgate in the local wrecking yard with a very worn out M37 parts truck, it is torn, but maybe I could get it and repair...

Thank you, as of today she shows 13,891.7 miles on her and I've confirmed the odometer is working so I don't have any reason to doubt it. Is it likely that she would have 113,000 miles on her or are these trucks just really low milage machines?

Finally some better pictures!

Thank you for the fast responses, sorry I only have one pic so far, I've been too busy getting the truck all sorted out to be dealing with a digital camera. She looks a little different now, I've renewed most of the markings and removed most of what was left of the red. I changed the bridge...

Hello, I'm brand spankin' new to MV's and I have a few questions about my '64 M37B-1. I've had the truck for one week now, I've gotten her to run, drive and stop and the old girl just purrs. She's mostly origional, still has the 24V electrics, waterproof ignition, vacuum wipers (one of which...
