So thanks to G741.org I found an M that was exactly what I wanted. A nearly rust free body, bed and frame. Soon I will begin the build but I have found there are a few parts that I am going to need to look for that were not with the truck when I purchased it. I am going to need the rear bumperettes ...

Looks like it is back up for sale. I am assuming the seller didn't get what he wanted for it.

I am still in the planning stages for the M that I am going to be picking up at the beginning of next month. I am trying to find out as much info as possible so that I can start collecting parts. I plan to repower the truck with a Cummins 4bt, NV4500, Divorced NP205 and am thinking of a Dana 44 fron...

I have a truck found thanks to this site. I will be picking it up at the end of the month. Exactly what I was wanting to get.

Thanks guys

I am looking to build myself an M37 with a more modern drivetrain so that it can be enjoyed as a daily driver. I am looking for a body, bed and frame and possibly just a set of casters bolted to the frame to be able to load it and move it around until I can get my own axles under it. I am located ne...
