Congrats David! That sure is a fine rig and we're all proud of your efforts!
Since the Utah weather is now turning for the better, time to get my exterior smoothed out, stripped, primed and painted (the stripping I absolutely detest, as some of you already know)

Thanks Gary.
You enjoy that bodywork my friend

I need another project, I miss all that heavy work! Got my eyes on a trailer. Going to check it out next weekend

David,
Can't have a truck with out a trailer....

I say go for it. Or maybe go one size up or one size down. An M35 would look good with your M37 or a M38A1 or a M151 might look nice too.
I'm such an enabler...
Of course once you have the next vehicle be it trailer or truck it will be official that you have OD Fever and there is no known cure for it!

I like that sentiment. However, you can turn it around and get a trailer first. Then, you tell the wife "ya know, we really need this trailer to haul stuff with, but it's kinda hard to do without a truck to tow it with! It just so happens, I know where I can get one. How about if i give the guy a call? Hmmmm?"
Who knows? It might just work!

If or when I get the M37B3 done my wife has told me that my next car project will be one for her. I keep trying to talk her into her own MV, but she is leaning towards something a bit faster and more shinny. Actually we both drove an AMC Gremlin when we were kids so we're thinking about getting one of those for old time sake!
