Re: 1962 M37 Newbie Restore

Hey Elwood thanks for the quick reply! To clarify, I took the spark plugs out. They were just barely threaded in when I shot that video.

Re: 1962 M37 Newbie Restore

Re: 1962 M37 Newbie Restore

F18hornetm I've noticed your build as well, really great stuff! I also noticed you are on the Eastern Shore. How far from Maryland are you? I wouldn't mind taking a road trip out to see your project some time if you'd be up for it?

Re: 1962 M37 Newbie Restore
