The town of Rockford WASHINGTON (as opposed to Illinois) is requesting the presence of as many privately owned Military Vehicles for display as possible during one weekend this summer. Being a slightly fanatical MV owner, I would like to go one better, and see if I can gather both MV owners and...

Trailer... Are you talking about the M105 series, because I'm not seeing the M101 series trailers for sale...

M101... Thanks for the suggestion, but if I'm going to dish out the funds for a M101 trailer, it's going to be for one I'll pull behind my M-37... I think I'm going to knock together a military looking stake-side flat bed for this...

Idaho I've got a better chance at hitting that one, truth be told. Maybe Army Dave needs help hauling parts over...

I'd love to, but the distance might be prohibitive this year... I'm actually hoping to find some MV activity on THIS side of the state!

Before I saw all the replies I wrote: Okay, first off, you're talking about an operation that I wouldn't recommend to a novice. What I would do is take your rims and tires to a tire shop that deals with farm equipment or big rigs. Watch how they do it. They'll use something that looks...

Sure do! I'm in the middle of a frame up restoration of a 1951 M-37.

She was located up in Elk, actually... Fellow said he had enough projects and didn't think that he would ever get around to doing anything with her (on top of not being sure anything could be done for her...) Way back when, Chris Davis turned a rust shaped pile of parts into a parade-ready MB...

Mate, I've got my hands full with the one sitting in my driveway! :!:

You know, I just don't have an answer for that one, other than it would show the world that the admin folk in these here parts are attentive to the needs of us mere peons... Mebbe get a few more back on the road to tick off the liberals... 'Cause, otherwise, you'll have these really ugly Fords...

Sometimes... Sometimes the original gear is too far gone, and all you have is the frame and most of the running gear... That simply means that you get to research how to repower the beast with something that you have a prayer of getting parts for!!! [thumbzup] At least, that's the plan for...

A full 6" restoration is out of the question, so I am going to get the running gear, engine, brakes, and steering up to snuff, and then clean up the forward sheet metal as best I can to preserve the distinctive GTB front, and then fabricate a custom flatbed back for general purpose (she IS a 1...

The Burma Jeep seems to be getting a bit more attention these days. Perhaps it's time to break it out into its own section in the WW2 area. 2cents Best regards, SGT B

Got a Burma Jeep the other day... Free... (Y'all can stop gnashing your teeth now... :twisted:) The front body looks reasonable, but I'll have to rebuild seats, and pretty much everything aft of the transmission. Running gear looks good and the engine isn't frozen... Pictures are on my...

New to Steel Soldiers, but not to M37s (I'm on number 3 now). Currently located in Rockford, WA (think Spokane, and then go south a bit), and looking for other fans of the M37. I've pulled the front body and winch, as well as the engine, and will tackle the cab, bed and frame this winter. I...
