I sent an e-mail concerning my "M37 B1 WOW". Your registry kicks out my serial number as invalid. Here is the picture of the plate. It has a federal stock number.

Hello Brian,

Look for the serial number on the frame, located in the drivers side front wheel well area. This may be coated by several layers of paint but will be a complete truck serial number.

You should see something like the pictures in this topic:

The number is 02023. Someone welded a plate in front of those numbers for a plow or something but there is more space in front of it than what is between the numbers I listed. The frame has some red paint on it as well as some red behind the green on the cowl. Could this perhaps be a truck issued for a Federal Parks Commission?

I see my Contract number is listed and consistent with your list.

I found this page doing a web search. It appears to be from this group.

http://www.g741.org/Registry.htm

It shows similar listings as my 1960 M37 B1-WOW. I would assume with this information the prefix to my serial number is T245- Making it T245-02023 ( I can't see the numbers under the welding on the frame) The registry system still won't take it.

OK, got word that you should try the T245... without the dash to see if that works. If it does not, send me a PM and we'll see about a manual override.
Thanks,
Gary

I'd just like to be able to edit my listing. But I've never been able to log back in.

Hmmm... Leaving out the dash didn't work and "just me" is unable to edit. When is the last time anyone added a listing to the registry? Maybe something is is out of wack with the program.

I did a search for mine, it doesn't come up on the list. If I do a search with the serial # it shows up. I cannot get in to do any editing either.

Brian,
Your truck is one of the oddball ones. The T245 series ones are problematic. I am working on it. Four trucks have been entered into the registry this month, so I know it works.

Every one else,
If you are having issues editing your truck, keep in mind it has a different login system than the forum. If you still have problems, email me and I will check into it.
