In what can be described as nothing less than a masterpiece of organization, I found both the missing battery switch and cowl vent bracket circuit breaker. They were attached to the old wiring harness and stashed in another part of the barn (don't ask!). Mouse food? Here's a photo attached just...

Mystery solved, sanity intact, memory maybe not so much. Now, why am I posting this? Let's see; oh, yeah. Back in my day.... Thank you very much to G744 for his response. He's dead on with his recall. In early models, there were 3 breakers installed on the cowl vent bracket: one for the horn...

Without getting into all the "why's and wherefores," when dismantling my M37B1, I labeled a circuit breaker as a "battery box circuit breaker" as if it were installed on the box. I'm aware that the breakers are supposed to be mounted on the cowl vent bracket, and I'm certain that the truck had...

I also recently dealt with the rebuilding of corroded light bodies and encountered similar problems. Here's a technique you might try in addition to the penetrating oil soak: Before trying to loosen the screw or other fastener, try to tighten it a bit. It doesn't have to turn; it just has to...

Yup, looks like the scat duct is the right stuff. Now I'm trying to come up with the appropriate internal justification for the purchase. Problem is that the spousal red wine bill tends to increase in direct proportion to the specialized "purist" restoration parts bill, thereby further...

Thank you for the tip; I'm on the hunt. Seems that the max size from Old Air is 3 1/4 in--I need 4 inch. The closest that Newco has is a Ferrari (yeah, that's right!) reproduction 100MM diameter sold by the foot ($29.50 per). I found "Industrial Duct Hose"--not sure what that is-- (Zoro.com)...

Hello all, In my M37 restoration, I'm replacing the old gas 4 inch heater air duct hoses which run from the heater to the adapter, then diverter, then defroster. The original hose is a steel wire reinforced black fabric material which I would like to replicate. Does anyone have a source...

Available are doors from M37B1 with the cutout and for the M37 without cutout (note rust pitting). Please make offer, if interested. Packing and shipping will be added at actual cost. Latching hardware is available. Can take to the Findlay show.

Looking forward to seeing it at Findlay. You've done a lot of work in a short time. Exciting!

Will do. Thank you.

Hi Dale, Can you send a private message to me? I think we can work out something for you.

Good report. As to the master cylinder, can you remove the plunger rod to remove the rust which is likely making it stick?

Coming along nicely. Looking forward to seeing it at Findlay.

How loud and hot does that run?
