Found 5 items in a box of parts I bought recently. Hope someone here can help me identify them.
1.) Some type of test equipment that holds a D cell battery. Marked INSTRUMENT, TESTING, M37 and WENDELIGHT Co and STOCK # 7691992

2.) Some type of a switch with 3 wires

3.) A light with a douglas connector and 3 metal tags 122, 58, 211
Image

4.) A large black out drive light with sheet metal guard.
Image

5.) Large black out marker light

Thanks in advance.

Sorry none of these look like any thing that I saw on an M37. The blackout light looks a bit heavier than the one on the M. ED

I can't tell you what the first two are but the third one is a black out marker light from either a M880 Dodge (family) or a M1009 (CUCV family). The black out drive light is just a black out drive light probably from the 60s. By the mount I'd say off of either a 1/4 ton or 5/4 ton (M151 or M715) I'd guess.
M37s are HMMWV in my world!
