Funny you should post that, I've hit a road block with my ferret resto and my M37 is nothing more then a pile of parts (got it completely stripped down). So I'm going to activly start working on the M37 again. I'll be posting lots of questions in the near future. Thanks for the words of encouragment.

Always glad to help, Matt! Been there and done that-take it one small project at a time. Whenever I hit stall speed I pop in my old Trucks video where Stacey David was working on an old '41 Dodge military-always gets me pumped back up to pull some more M time :) My old copy of the M4 Sherman build on "Combat Garage" has the same effect!

It IS easy.....if you have all the parts, a fully equipped machine shop, all the necessary tools to do the job, the knowledge required for the task, all the time in the world, an interested spouse, and an unlimited supply of money. ;)

The trouble is, most of us are severely lacking in at least two of those areas. :(
