Some more work done today despite a somewhat thick head due to New Year's Eve festivities. Got the box sides off. They are pretty rotten. The entire box is actually. If anyone has one especially in Washington or BC let me know. https://www.dropbox.com/s/mvegdpy6mttsn1n/Photo%202017-01-01%2C%205%2019...

You can post a photo. The easiest way is to use an image hosting site like Photobucket. Congraulations on the truck. Paint schemes varied throughout their service life. From the factory they were green. Mine ended up with a black/green/tan or white scheme. Here is mine. http://i459.photobucket.com/a...

Hi John and welcome, I am not an expert on the M37CDN but I do have one and know a little. About 5500 M37CDN's were built for the Canadian Armed Forces. Unlike the American trucks the Have a Flathead 6 251 rather than the 230. Your serial number is in the range of Canadian numbers I believe. Other C...

Today's progress: Front fenders off, windshield off, doors off. Thanks RMS for the tip on the door anchors. Radiator off. Air filter and carb off. https://www.dropbox.com/s/vws4ucmddt0dvuj/Photo%202016-12-05%2C%203%2045%2024%20PM.jpg?raw=1 https://www.dropbox.com/s/x42paaw90sjbvm9/Photo%202016-12-05...

Thanks for the offer Jess but I have the manuals already. My parts listing is missing pages 1-2 but otherwise complete if you need a copy of some pages. If you find yourself passing through Duncan feel free to stop in for a look and a beer. Where on the island are you? I put my truck in the registry...

Thanks Robyn and Jess, I will get the CFR and serial tomorrow. The 4 ferries were from the island to Vancouver then over to the Sunshine Coast and back. Truck was in Sechelt. Doors and engine are both coming off so those tips will be invaluable. Thanks very much. I did send you an email about some p...

The angle iron was already bent from previous use and is on my list of things to address. The winch isn't light though so lifting my there may have helped the bending along. Another option would be to wrap around the drum all the way with a longer chain or put a long bolt to the brackets on either s...

Box looks great as does the rest of the truck, I'm about to start down the same road with my 52 CDN

Robyn, I'm away from home at the moment but I can look when I get back. If I remember right it was to turn off the radio set before turning the ignition off. There is a fairly beefy wire that goes from the battery box to the front of the bed so I'm guessing this had a radio plugged in there at some ...

Just starting work on the restoration of my M37. I found it about 4 years ago, last licensed in 1982 and not running. After purchasing it a couple days of work did get it running but then life got in the way and it sat at my dads place until now. Here is what it looked like when found: https://www.d...
