M37 Dodge Project

[J5 Bombardier]

Working on doors and getting them fitted to the cab before paint. I wasn't happy with the original driver's door , so stripped down a spare off a parts truck, it will look better . Just about done blasting it in the cabinet , it's a snug fit , but didn't want to get the big sandblaster out just for that .

I think all my truck projects just got finished, I found a cummins swapped 1965 Dodge W200 crew cab that is pretty much all done except final paint prep and paint. Made a deal to trade my 2 truck projects with all the parts and a little cash for it. After the deal is completed I will post it on my thread. The fire at the cabin and work load put me behind 3 years, I just caught up.

Saw an American M37 at a car show in Renfrew Ont yesterday ,the back window is a giveaway . Little rough up close ,had a V8 and power steering ,Indiana car dealer plate on the tailgate .

Removed the canvas track off a junked American windshield and spot welded it onto my Canadian frame ,that's it for the mods to install a canvas roof . I'm ready to finish painting the cab tomorrow .

Looking good, your project season is opposite of mine, summer is the work cabin where its 75 instead of 100, winter is when the projects around the ranch get done. I am just finishing the COOT and will move on to the RAID track, that will be a month or so then I can get back on the Cummins truck project and try to catch up a little. Like you I have many projects.
