Finally restoring the M37

[hndrsonj]

Well had to adjust the transfer case shift rod, then took it for it's first drive in 8 years. Moved it to storage at work and the M38 is now home in the garage. I'll get some pictures in the next couple weeks.

Put in the firewall pad, last panels and shifter boot.

Beautifully Done.

Better than New.

Well Done.

I was going to paint mine a light grey on the outside and leave the interior green, but after seeing yours and how much it lightens up the interior, i think i will be painting it grey inside as well. Really like that seat color as well, matches well, and different than usual, but not a deterrent way.

The seat covers came from New Life Canvas. They are actually grey, the picture doesn't really show that. There's more seat pictures around posts 100-105.

Wow, a gem, museum quality! REAL nice, hndrsonj.

Guessing a winch was intended for that split front bumper, is that right?

Yes, I still need to put it and the troop seats on.

I am in awe of this outstanding project.

This truck is in the October 2019 MV of the Month competition.... https://www.steelsoldiers.com/showt...diers-MV-of-the-month-2019-October-VOTE-HERE!

It will be tough to beat.

Well I figured I should finish the last little bit; winch is torn apart ready for cleaning and paint.

Just a little gunky on the brake assembly but over all it looks like it's in good shape.

I just primed my housing.

Took the M37 to Cheyenne Cruise Nights last night. They do it every Saturday in the summer to benefit a local charity (was Toys for Tots last night). Raised over $3,200.

Your M37, hndrsonj, is outrageously fine.

Nice!
