That truck is so purddy that you should have marked it with a general HQ and put at least a 2 star plate on it.... :) Too purddy for the grunt in the mud... :D

Nice looking truck. I'm sure all the lib teachers will love your son driving that to school....lol.
M37s are HMMWV in my world!

I wrote them inquiring the price and process to get a top for my M38 and never got a reply. Is that typical, or not, for New Life?

Wow, beautiful truck! You have done a super job of restoration, congrats. What type of exhaust pipe extension is that? Carter

Knattrass,

Congratulations on a beautiful truck. If it had wings and were at Oshkosh, it would be a Golden Wrench Award winner for sure! :D

Try again,she is a one person operation and is very busy. Her work and price is worth the wait and a second try.

What a beautiful rig! Easy Company 506th? A tribute to the "Band of Brothers" unit in WWII perhaps?

Mona just recently moved to a new building so I would tell you to email her directly - she is very busy but very nice to deal with. Beechwood sometimes may have canvas in stock, but that's another option.

YES - we found the original hood number but could not find the unit numbers so Zach named his truck after his favorite book - B-o-B!

Here's the starting point from August 2007 (last year)
