Hood Handle

Does anyone know why some M37 trucks have hood handles while others don't? Was there a production change? Is the handle normally found on early or late trucks? Just curious!

Thanks,

Joe

It was a modification done on all Marine trucks. I don't think it's any special U-bolt. I think it's just a bent bolt or piece of threaded rod. Just cut two holes centered in the front edge of your hood, and bend some threaded rod to fit, with nuts and washers threaded on it on both the inside and outside to lock it down.
