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. 20201205_133356.jpg

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!
