Hello from Wisconsin

[Sparky91.7]

Thanks for providing the service you offer! I am a new member from WI. I just purchased what started out as a 1952 or early 1953 M211 cab, that has been married to a Chevy truck chassis. I know it's not an all original vehicle, but should be a fun machine after I get the rest of the bugs worked out of it. My father and I had always talked about gething a MV, and now that he's passed, I wanted to do something to honor his service as a Marine. The information I've found already here has been helpful, and I hope to find the parts I need to finish the cab and make it a decent driver. Someone had built a homemade hard top for it which doesnt look too bad, but i think i want to get it back to its original soft top configuration. Windshield and door seals are all shot, and its got aftermarket gauges in the dash. I was looking for an M37, but this came up and I really dig the looks of this series of trucks. I work in radio, announce drag races, and am in the diesel truck parts industry. Thanks again, and keep the wheels down and the roof up.

Welcome from North Carolina!

Fixing that truck up in honor or your dad is a cool plan. It's yours to do with as you see fit, but a hard top is a nice feature to have... Enjoy the new hobby and welcome to the site!
