M37 Restoration (53-41242)

[Mike Cecil]

Wayne, I'm devastated .... do I see dust marks on the floor of your magnificently restored vehicle!?! Time to make those insertion rubber floor mats!



Great job, look forward to seeing it in person.

hahaha... Yes, I take your point on the dust, Mike. I was almost tempted to make a disclaimer about it. Its just part of my reality, I guess.
I look forward to your next trek north.

I know one guy who has slippers and guest slippers at the entrance to his garage/workshop. He is fairly meticulous (it is not me).

Mike is now also aware about Canadas 4 legged kamikaze road vermin.

The slippers are a great idea, however that would require one to have a clean workspace to begin with. That is the larger challenge (for me anyway).

By the look of the date stamp on my last update, I’ve been slacking off.

I now have all the operator controls connected inside the cab, except the steering. The electrical is done except the front lights and horn (and I need to buy two batteries). I put new insulation in and installed the cab roof. The original insulation was brown hairy looking stuff that the mice made a great home in. The new stuff looks like it belongs in a space shuttle. Overall, it’s starting to look like a truck again.

ohhh... sorry Mike, I didn't clean up my dirty footprints yet. Cover your eyes.
