The WC63 along with a WC59 are both at my house. Unfortunately both are missing the windshield assemblies. Without those both are dead in the water but, the hunt continues. =)

This is the donor chassis that he has. It's what the firewall/cowl section that I already brought home was pulled from. This one is pretty rough. Lots of hacking on the frame and heavy delamination of the frame doubler.

I'll be making another run back to the same seller here in a couple of weeks. The black PW cab in the back is sitting on a 6x6 WC chassis. I have two concerns on this one. 1) The cab s/n plate is missing but the chassis s/n is clearly visible. No idea if I would ever be able to get a bonded...

I've been running through their parts catalog a lot lately. =)

Pretty good day pickin' parts. Came away with 12 more serviceable combat wheels, WC-62 cowl with steering column to strip for parts (data plate with s/n intact), and a complete WC front end with radiator and hood. He was so happy to have the parts gone that he threw in a NOS clutch/pressure...

I'm actually surprised by the number or trucks I've run across since I found the first one just 30 days ago. Today I was surfing and ran across a fellow with a '68 Power Wagon who has 6 of the combat wheels (extra). Unfortunately he won't part with the wheels. He'll only sell them with the truck...

The older I get the more that seems to happen to me. =)

Looking at some pictures of the windshield frames they don't look that complicated. I'll look at the parts truck when it gets here and see what's involved with fabricating them.

Possibly picking this hodge-podge up too if the owner can get the title for it. '52 M37 sitting on a WC62 chassis.

I have no intention of trashing any parts.

That's good to know. Thank you for the information. In an odd twist of fate I ran across (and struck a deal on) a rusty parts rig that's close to me. Hope to get it home next weekend.

As far as the windshield goes, I assume the cowl is shared with the WC51/WC52. Is that correct?

A bit of a fiasco getting her on the trailer with both front tires down but she's home. I still need to locate a windshield and 1 or 2 of the military style rims but she's fairly complete. The box is pretty beat up and I'm terrible at metal work but I think it can be saved. Frame is virtually...

Yours is coming along beautifully. Very nice work. The lack of cancer once I cleaned it out gave me hope. My main concern right now is the lack of a windshield. I've started browsing around but no luck so far. I have a lot to learn about this old rig and what parts can be crossed to other...

Will do. Thank you for the input.

The box is fairly beat up but the front sheet metal looks pretty good. I've only found one tiny spot of cancer at the bottom outside of the drivers side front tool box. The rest of the sheet metal (along with the frame) look to be rock solid. As far as the locked up steering I don't know what...

I was able to get her drug out this weekend and shovel all of the pine needles and dirt out of it. All tires turned so no locked up brakes or axles. I did find one more military rim and a Power Wagon rim in the trees behind it. I'll still be short one original rim. Two tires are down and rotten...

I'm working on it...

I'm taking the weekend to think about it. I have a feeling that I'll be dropping those small pines and seeing if I can get my gooseneck back to it. Richard

Data plates show it to be around a May/June '63 build if I'm reading the S/N list correctly. All of the plates appear to be there.
