Re: Doors and Other Parts for Trade

I am in Plaquemine, LA. I don't have any of the parts you are looking for but how much are you asking for the Glove Box?

Re: Hardtop, Canvas or Topless?

I have an old dry canvas top that I plan on making into a bikini top. Saw it in the M37 group on Facebook.

Re: Which 24V Electronic Fuel Pump?

Thanks ez8 for bringing this up as I have been wondering the same thing.

I have seen where some have used the Airtex E8135. Any thoughts on that model?

For those of you that have made the switch to electronic fuel pumps, what did you do for your windshield wipers?

Re: Another green thing to work on, 53 M37

I found some die springs at McMaster-Carr that seem to be decent substitutes for the original cab mount springs. The ORD 9 SNL doesn't include spring rates, so we have to guess a bit on those (I have the old springs from my truck, but they're rusty, used, and no guarantees they're even original), b...

Re: Winch cable size and length?

Re: My 1954 M37

Mike, Congratulations on the decisions, selections and purchase of a nice M37. As you have discovered parts on these things got swapped out a lot, and the later glove box door isn't un-common. Just be sure then Title matches the frame number, and you might want to get a new data plate and have it m...

My 1954 M37
