Finally got one

Post by Lenard »

After a lot of years I finally got a M37. It is supposed to be a 1963 but the information on the title is ??? Body is in good shape for Alaska, looks like it came from Fairbanks area looking at the past registrations. I have to get it home and some batteries to see if it will run and what kind of shape the drive train is in.

Here are a few pics from the ad and one of the engine compartment I took.

Where at in Alaska? because i have a truck in fairbanks, and a couple of tons of spare parts in a storage unit in Palmer. If yours came with an extra carb elbow front bracket, or any spare plug wires in good shape, i am looking for a couple of those.

It is in Wasilla and I live in Palmer. Nothing extra on this deal. The guy I bought it from said he hauled it down from Fairbanks last year and it has sat since then, I;m guessing I will be hunting for a bunch of stuff also. Do you know Dave out in the Butte area?

I don't think i know Dave, my truck actually came from Wasilla and was brought up to Fairbanks!

this is my pile of spare parts, mostly it's axles, drivelines, a couple gear boxes, and some other various stuff. even an engine block and most of the valves. Some of the stuff i'm keeping or has already been spoken for if i find i don't need it, but if you find yourself needing something don't hesitate to ask, i might have what you need.
