restoring a M37

[Pegasus]

Hello from Brighton, Ontario.

I am new to this and I think I must have put my original message on the wrong forum, because I can't even find it ... oh well, here goes again.

I bought a 1955 M37 3/4 ton a couple of weeks ago and am presently trying to get it certified at the garage. If anyone knows a place where parts can be obtained for this model ( ie: rear anxle seals ) muffler, etc. I would be most grateful. I am quickly realizing that this is going to be an expensive hobby.

All of that said. I do wish to eventually have this in good enough condition to go to truck and military vehicle shows, Remembrance Day parades, and take old Army Vets out for a spin and a Tim's coffee to show our appreciation for what they have sacrificed in the name of Freedom.

Sincerely,
Richard Hamilton, RCMP ret and former PPCLI

I also own an M37. It was pretty much fully restored when I bought it, and I have had to do very little to it. However, I know of several sources for parts that I would be happy to share with you. Are you a member of the MVPA? Their Supply Line magazine is a good starting point for parts suppliers, most of them being in the US.

Call me if you wish to talk in detail. 905-854-4576 evenings

Thank you Mel. MVPA sounds like a good organization for me to join. I have belonged to OMVA for quite a few years, but without a vehicle in the past, wasn't too involved. Now, with my M37 I will be able to participate.

Thank you Paul,

Sounds like a solid leed.
