My 1st M37

Post by Joose »

Well, here it is folks! The start of my M37 build with help from the great RMS. Finally got the new cab on today.
Many blocks of wood and some elbow grease, and it is on the chassis and 1 bolt in. Just have to make some rubber biscuits for the mounts and slide them in. Hope the pics show up. If not I will try to get them on Photobucket. Happy building all.

You definitely have some work to do! Nice pictures, too! I recommend keeping a journal of all the work you complete, along with the parts purchased so you'll have a record years from now-the mind tends to fade with time. I started my M37 10 years ago, and my journal not only has saved me at least a dozen times, it has also provided parts numbers, vendors, etc. when our forum mates ask....
Keep us posted on your progress!
Thanks!

Thanks for the tips Gary. Makes sense to keep a log to refer to as I agree the film in my photographic memory is often overexposed! O_o
