Re: M37 windshield frames

"might" have an NOS exhaust pipe, the one that goes after the muffler. Need to look and see if it went with the truck when I sold it.

Re: Taillight Brackets Question

You might have a M43 bracket on the left. There was no trailer connection on the ambulances and both of mine had short brackets with only taillight holes in them.
