    M38 flat towing

    Mine is a 1952 M-38. Are you saying if I use a tow dolly I would need to pull the driveshaft loose? I can lock out front hubs, but the in/out shift lever in the floorboard does not have a detent for neutral, you can put it in the middle but it's really in or out and I worried that during towing...

    M38 flat towing

    My M-38 has lock out front hubs. I have a car dolly, what would you do if you used that? I am the king of overbuilding everything, and a trailer I built would be heavy. I towed it on a short tandem axle flatbed trailer and it got to be more than the pick-up wanted when you got in the hills. I...

    Fuel Tank

    I can look back and see where I got mine, their service was fantastic and I got it in a couple of days. They must have shipped it immediately. But can I post a link and not get in trouble, some sites don't allow that unless they are a sponser, and I'm new and don't know. Sure cured my fuel...

    Fuel Tank

    I tried coating mine and gave up and bought a new one. That ended all my fuel problems. I know it was a big bite but if that tank made it from 1952 to 2011, a new one will out last me. I was worried that if I waited several years a new one might not be available for a M-38. They were only made...
