Trucks in Guam

There are more M-37's in the background of many of the flickr pics, but these are the best. http://i809.pho...

Air Force M-37 in Turkey, 1961

CUCV Pintle and Bridge Plate

Anybody know if the pintle from a CUCV will work as a replacement for the missing one from an M37?

How about the bridge plate? Have they changed over the years or will the one off a CUCV work for a 'Nam era M37? :?
