Update after Spring Break
Had a few days over spring break to work on the M-37. Took off the front fenders, hood, grill, doors, cab top, seats. Basically, all that is left on the frame is the cab and bed. Noticed an interesting bracket on top of the cowl in front of the vent. It is in one of...

Brian will have to give the details. Basically, it was freezing, the truck didn't want to unload right, and my dream was fulfilled. This makes my second M37 (sold the first one to buy my wife's wedding ring) and I am not letting this one get away! I need an I.D. on the engine though. It...
