Nice 1954 M37 For Sale, Lots of extras - Pine, Colorado

[sbaumgartner]

Hi Folks,

I used to be an active member on this forum when I first bought my truck several years ago. Unfortunately, it's time to let my M37 go. I've done quite a bit of work to this truck and have several detailed pics and videos of the vehicle. I also have a ton of extras that go with this truck and think it would make a great parade truck or part of a militaria collection. I would like it to go to someone who really appreciates these vehicles and would like to keep it as original as possible.

$10,000 OBO based on condition and all the extras.



And here is a link to a 10 min video of me talking about and driving the truck.

Steve,
Would you be willing to part with the radio separately?
Two things I have always wanted in mine for shows and parades were a correct radio and an M14!

Sure, I'd be open to that. I also have an M14 (M1A1), but I don't think I can part with that Shoot me an email and let's work out details. steve.baumgartner@mail2web.com

Bump ... Still for sale. There's been some interest in a few of the parts (distributor, radio, etc). I'm willing to separate and entertain offers.

Thanks,
Steve
