Three trucks

[Carter]

I found these shots taken years ago of trucks owned by my friends Ralph, Don and my self. Ralph's is the red one and mine is the third.
Don's if closest to the camers with an M35 Duce top installed, note the ribs in the roof material and snaps along the sides over the door.
These shots might answer the question "Will a Duce top fit an M37?" It can be made to fit if you have the correct hardware.

Nice Group pictures....Never seen a side mirror that far forward...

Carter,

Great pictures of the trucks. Thanks for sharing.

That looks like a gas fired heater on the fender of your truck? I've never seen one of those mounted. Do you have any more pictures of that close up?

Thanks guys, found the pix yesterday and thought since we all like shots of M37s I'd put them up.
Sal, that mirror mount was done by the firemen at Pikesville Md. who used the truck as a brush fire rig until Ralph bought it who later sold it to me and it now resides in my garage.
Yes Bert that was a gas fired heater that I installed on that truck. Bought the entire NOS kit for $100 at the Summit Delaware Rally in 1982. Had to run it on low as it was to hot on high even on the coldest days. I will look for other shots of it and see what I find.

Carter, you are so right about the amount of heat those fuel-fired heaters pump out. I had one on my truck about the same time (early 1980's) and that thing drove my wife and I out of that cab in the winter in the mountains out here (Washington state). Snow over the hubs, soild curtain of snow coming down and we had every window wide open and we were in t-shirts. They are great heaters, but you need to be in the Northern reaches of Canada in the winter to be able to comfortablly use those things.

I'm going to try a stock military engine coolant water heater this coming winter. I hope it is a little more comfortable.

Nothing close up Bert, just this. Can't find any others.





Found the truck on right in the woods and was towing it home, it was a freebee. http://news.webshots.com/album/561182676MgZCnc

They will drive you out of the cab also they will keep every bit of snow and ice off of the windshield. I liked to watch the snow hit the windshield and immediately turn to steam, no melting involved just instantly from a solid to a gas.

Thanks again Carter for the pictures.
