Does anybody have a source for the door mounted spare tire carriers and the fuel can holder on the pax side?

Try John at Midwest Military
http://www.midwestmil.com/index.html or Memphis Equipment Co.
http://www.memphisequipment.com/Parts/default1.asp Memphis had the tire carriers last time I needed parts for one but they aren't inexpensive there

and both places might also have gas can holders.

You aren't likely to find cheap tire carriers. That is a thing that many non-B1 trucks have fitted as add ons.
Keep digging and you might get a deal at a show.

I got mine from vintage powerwagons. But be ready to fork out some money. I put mine on a 1952 and as many know that was not original equipment for mine. But with the addition of a communication shelter its the only way for me.

VPW has a catalog out now? I ordered from them a couple of weeks ago and was told it would be some time yet before they get a new catalog out. I was told the web site catalog was it for now.

Nearly every year then print a new one, usually to reflect a newer (increased) price.

Thanks Chunk, thats my spare tire carrier, decided to put it on ebay as I could not find out what to sell it for, sorry to say I paid 200.00 for it... oh well, could never find one and wanted it ... now I decided I have one on the m43 and thats hard enough for me to get in and out of, think those were made for us soldiers when we were young not in our 60's .... can't get the damn door open when I am done driving!!!! didn't know how to put it on this site with a pic and couldn't find out what its worth so just decided to take my beating and let it go.... thanks

No problem. I think you'll get your money back out of it without any hassle.

I'll be bidding on it! My M-37 came with all interior parts and I just need what's shown and the spinner. I expect you'll make a tidy profit!
