M37 parts?

[Bob Carriere]

Bonjour Michell

Finding a box may be easy finding a good one.... not rusted or warped out of shape is more difficult.

Not sure where you are located out West but there should be some M 37 that are complete available for sale.... if you are not near some large town you may have to travel to bring it home.

When it comes to starting a project like getting an old truck ready for the road there are a few basic rules or warnings......

Get the best most complete truck you can afford..... it will save you time and money later...

You can't really do the job without a second one for parts......

You will, before it is finished, spend more money than you budgetted or told your wife about......

There are few one stop store for M 37 parts...... the laregst inventory are USA surplus dealers selling on Ebay or the web ...... they seem to have bought out HUGE inventories of Canadian army surplus which they will now sell you back at a good profit..... strnage to buy form Norht Carolina and get a prestine NOS box stamnped CFB London, Ontario..... but they do have the parts...almost any parts you can think of for M 37.

MLU can be a good source of used parts.....OMVA has listed in their magazine Canadian dealers on the East coast near Gagetown......

You can check out Vintage Power Wagon in Fairfield In. htye are source of very good information.

If the M 37 you are looking at is a good runner..... with minimal rust and the price is right grab it while you can....... then the insanity begins.....

Good Luck
