Speaking of.... how goes it?My friend you stole that truck, I'm currently working on one and would like to trade information. As guy stated the manual is available I just got mine last week from portrayal press was only $20 photocopies aren't awesome but rest of manual are.
Had a setback last weekend, had a new stud that wouldn't stop leaking. So apart came the manifolds again another timesert installed. Yesterday new water pump, thermostat, hoses, belt, and reinstall intake exhaust manifolds. Joely fired it up and it runs like a new one ran it for about half an hour and topped off antifreeze. Now to start in on brakesSpeaking of.... how goes it?
Here's the written manual I got from portrayal press for under $20Thanks! These will definitely be useful
Great to see someone else is restoring one! Would love to trade info I'll shoot you a message when I get the chance. I will probably pick up one of those manuals too as an in hand copy makes life much easier..My friend you stole that truck, I'm currently working on one and would like to trade information.

i just spent most of the morning digging thru albums and cannot locate a pic i took @1975 or 76 of a town FD's M37-type that was set up as a tanker/brush fire fighter w/hose reels and side-mounted backpack tanks for 8 or 10 men .. It did not have the typical M37 box, rather, the bed was specifically made by a specialty contract builder and done so well it looked like it belonged on a M37 .. I had never seen one before or since.. Rediscovered a ton of other interesting pics, but not the one I was looking for.. It's got to be here somewhere.Few realize all M56 G741-series were custom builds on limited contracts.
The M56 was built by Dodge as a cab & chassis, then shipped to the respective builders.
The contact truck, the R2 crash wagon, the X? wrecker, and other rare ones are examples.
Yes, very rare those peroxide rigs were. They were essentially an M37 with a custom assembly in the bed.Like my donor truck, the XM387.

According to a gentleman who runs a website about the Redstone Missles, he informed me there were *very* few of them built.
Its good there are choices, the Midwest Military site has an excellent catalog with very useful parts diagrams. I do like being able to call someone and get some assistance with picking items, particularly with suggestions for items that commonly fail in a project area I am working on. Vintage Power Wagons for M37s and Big Mikes for M35s are both fantastic with this.Cool variant. Looks like you're having the fun that you ought to have.
I've used Midwest Military although John Bizal does not tolerate "dumb questions" very well.
