Most M37's have a spring frame covered with canvas for the drivers seat back. I never heard of a fiberglass unit. I'd like to see it. Do you have any pictures?

Mine has 5. 1 behind each door, and 3 across the back.

Thats how I have mine now. The J bolt was at the top when I bought my truck.

I didn't think anyone would catch that!

I think you will find that "Best Price" is only going to be a few $ difference from one place to the next. I don't think there are any outfits that are going to really standout above the rest. You may save a few bucks from one to the other but it won't be all that much.

Ever since I got involved in this hobby, I've always dreampt of inadvertently(or vertently :o ) finding an old warhorse languishing in some out of the way place, waiting to be rescued. So far the few I'm come across were always in someone's driveway or garage. I've yet to actually find a forgotten v...

None of your rust issues sound too difficult to repair, and all seem to be in the common rust prone areas, such as under the headlight, and under the windshield, etc. My truck has no rust issues under the headlights, but had some bad rust through under the windshield. Its an easy fix however as the ...

I had a similar question I have a top coming from WEEBEE this week and have no idea how to put it on I figure it can't be too hard. I ordered a cab top hardware kit from VPW it was fairly easy to put on however I got two large "U bolts" and do not know where they go. DMAN; I can take phot...

You're correct with regard to the "U" bolt. It goes in a slot behind the door jamb and the top hardware slides down through it. Tighten up the nuts, and there ya go...except for one thing. There are also a couple of "J" bolts that do the same thing a bit lower on the door jamb. ...

FYI,

I replied to your PM.

Nice looking truck. did it come with the front fenders? I didn't see them in the bed photo. If not then you might have some trouble locating a decent set. Why was the windshield removed? Curious in that regard. My first suggestion to you is to get it out of the elements as soon as you can. One of th...

What part of Pa is your town located? Maybe we are near each other. I am in Chester county....

You are only the second person(other than myself) that I am aware of who's M37 has an industrial engine in it. I am curious to learn more about yours. Are you absolutely sure it is not a military industrial engine? What make is it? Where is your fuel pump located (mine is near the exhaust downtube f...

Not to sound dumb, but what is an Arroyo? Also, I would try to fire up the truck with the engine it has in it. You never know it may have been abandoned for reasons other than a bad engine. Maybe the truck was stolen and then just dumped when they were done joy riding and/or the fuel ran out. You mi...
