Looks good. A B1 I assume?

Off the grid lately, new grandson for pop-pop to change. Yes it's a B1 but when I hung the new cab tub I realized how nice it is without the door mounted spare. I used carriage bolts to seal the holes and will save the mount and also the new canvas top and original top frame. The re-po fiberglass top may not suit the purists but the M37 lives outside and the interior is always dry.WarrenD wrote:Looks good. A B1 I assume?
Thanks for the comments, today I started on the second totally S.S. bed storage door.

That's a nice hard top. I had to look more carefully before I realized it wasn't a factory hard top. Your truck is looking great!

You aren't alone in removing the spare from the door, lots of the troops did the same thing. I always wondered why they didn't put it on the other side....only reason I can think of is they thought the driver would stay in the vehicle and passenger(s) would be in and out.

I can think of one other reason if you were in a combat zone. If I was a M37 driver in Vietnam I would have preferred a spare tire on each door! Then again knowing first hand about shrapnel, small arms, mines and RPGs I would have had sand bags inside the cab as well. On the floor and especially under the seat.WarrenD wrote:You aren't alone in removing the spare from the door, lots of the troops did the same thing.

I am glad the cab went to a person that could actually use it and you used it pretty darn good too !! That cab came all the way from vintage power wagons 10 plus years ago and I bought from a guy in Pennslyvania and never used it.. Now I know the bed you just bought willbe just as nice !!!
keep up the nice work
