MTA show in NJ

Post by M42Dodge »

Did anyone go? It is a pretty big show at the Sussex County fairgrounds.

Meet a a few people that have M37s still in restoration stages.

I took my M42 (in M37 form at the moment) on Saturday. One other M37 was flatbedded in due to a freeze plug failure enroute. I think there may have been one more at the Viet Nam era display but I missed seeing it.

Tons of Duece and a halfs and CUCVs and of course, jeeps. Nothing really exotic except for a Bren gun carrier and a M114.

Seems some of the better known vendors were not there. Kind of thin in the MV parts department...

I was there Sat and as a first timer, I thought the show was fine, though the weather took some of the fun out of it. I recall seeing 3 M37s, but I may have missed one. Not sure why, but it lacked the "wow" factor of other shows I've been to. Anyway, here are a few shots from the show:
