    So I have been around this sight for awhile and owned a 1951 M37 about 20 years ago. I purchased a M105a2 back in Feb. I figured I needed something better to tow it with than my F150.

    Here is my 1993 Turtle Mountain M105A2 when I picked it up at Fort Dix and when I got it home.

    After years of waiting, i finally bought an M37

    Nice M37. I had a 1951 and loved driving it. Converted all the lighting to 12 volt which was very easy and made getting parts a lot easier.
