Hi Rix,
That's Me! If it were'nt for rusty trucks, we would'nt have any. Tell me something, are these cool old rust free trucks just laying around all over the place out there? You should post a few pictures of your 506. I'd love to check it out.

Nice looking M37, had Tom@Snakeriver4x4's Gama Goat wheel conversion on it too but it's neglected, needs some use :wink:
I'll gladly take that 6x6 chassis and drivetrain home too!!

RMS,

Isn't that your buddies M37? I think I've seen you post pictures of that along with your truck on a logging road or by a lake.

I too would take the 6x6 chassis the frame is nice and thick. thicker than an m37 frame and twice as thick as a PW/ww2 frame and it would go good with my spare m37 tub and two boxes.

ya its my buddy's m37 and it needs some love. six months ago a valve seat popped out. then when we had the motor sitting on the floor a crack in the water jacket was discovered behind the starter. with some fancy rods he welded it up installed the motor to find a bit of porosity letting water out and a new crack letting oil out :cry:
