    M37 Instruments and switches

    I found a place that sells the manual for $40. I'd do that in a heartbeat if the truck was going to remain stock. But it's a little pricey for a single read just to learn. Where do I find a place to download it? Ah... I think I found it. Thanks...

    M37 Instruments and switches

    Fantastic... I don't know how I'm going to use the switch but wanted to know before going forward. So I still want to know what the positions are used for that you haven't described, but thanks for what you know. I could have sworn there was a position for starting the truck, to allow the...

    M37 Instruments and switches

    I have a bunch of questions about the cluster and switches on the dash of my '58 M37. I'm doing a restomod, switching the body onto a newer chassis, but maybe this can be a place where we can all share information on the dashboard of our trucks. So my first question is, what are the three tiny...
