My M37

[scrapdaddy]

Now that I learned how to post pictures, here are a few of my 51. I bought it from a man, who bought it @ 2000 and had Charles Talbert, Mseries rebuilders, go through and rebuild everything on the truck. From the winch to the rear dif. It was repainted in 1996, so it has a little " patina " going on. He put @ 28 miles, since he owned it. I bought it in 2007.

The only thing I've done to it, is put on the tires. I use it on the farm, everyday. 4 wheel disc brakes and GM power steering. Thinking of putting in a 4bt diesel and a new 5 speed.

After seeing that M-37, I've decided I don't like you.

I'm so jealous of you M-37 guys with nice trucks I get ill.

I love it. Congrats. Having the winch on it is special. Wanna sell it???

Thanks guys, I think the M37 is about the prefect MV to have and use for everyday driving. I want to grow old or older with this truck. it's a work truck and that's the way I like it.

Thanks again, Ron

Super truck, mine is still a frame sitting in the garage, I gotta get going!

Very nice truck. I always thought I would like a M715 but the more I see of the great looking M37's I think I would prefer that.

 

[scrapdaddy]

I'll probably get an arguement, but the M715, just rusted out so bad. I wanted something that will last, until I'm done. Hopefully awhile longer

Real Nice!
Charles does his rebuilds the way there supposed to be done.
These old Dodges are very rugged and reliable.
I bet it's right at home on the farm!
Well done!
Tom

TGP,

As you know Charles is the real deal. He has answered every question, I could think of. I have the matching M101 trailer, that he rebuilt, also. Thing is, it's just too nice to use. It just sits with never used tires on it. I use one of the other trailers, when getting or hauling stuff.

vtdeuce,

Topless! I bet that fun. I've never taken mine off. In fact I need a new top, maybe this summer, would be the time to go topless.

Ok, so the truck looks awesome, and it is. But what are the new tires you put on? Are those the XZLs in that size? I cannot remember now...

 

[scrapdaddy]

Yes, they are the Michelin XZL 11.00/16. I put the ceramic beads in the tubes, for balancing. No opinion on if they are working, I really don't go that fast to feel if they are balanced.
