    M37 Hardtop Question and search.

    Jerry, what I like about it is that's what it looks like after the truck has been rolled over on it a couple of times. It's godawful stout, but it takes two people to lift it on and off the truck. It took about 16 hours to build it.

    M37 Hardtop Question and search.

    I just took a weekend and built a steel top using 12 ga steel sheet, an extra frame and bow for a canvas top, and a sliding rear window out of a duece. Yeah, I know -- it needs a repaint :-(

    M-37 Gearing

    Nothing slow about a V8 powered 37 with stock drivetrain. It'll go faster than you want to drive it :-)

    Chevy 292 six

    I put a big block Chevy and SM465 in mine without cutting sheet metal. It is an easy conversion.

    M-37 Gearing

    I put a big block Chevy in my 37 about 45 years ago, and kept the stock 5.83 gearing and 9.00x16 directional tires. It was an easy swap. It'll go faster than you want to go, but don't stop so hot from speed.

    M37 Driveability

    I've got an M37 (given to me by my brother in 1962), and an XM708 I bought for about $125 in 1971. The 37 has a bb Chevy in it with SM465 transmission, 5.83 gearing, and 9.00x16 directional tires. I've had it up to a little over 111 mph once (never again!). It is very squirrelly over 65 mph...
