Re: I wish...

Kaegi, I wish that M37 Prototype was here at the Kempner Power Wagon Museum, but it isn't. I do have several trucks that are unrestored and very original, but none of them is a one-of-a-kind.

Re: Fuel for my M37

the mix is the way to go. even running 1/3rd av gas to 2/3 pump is great. Av gas has WAAAY more lead in it than the leaded gas we used to run in cars so when you cut it down its about right.
