1952 M37 Restoration
Restarted this M37 project after a 25 year hiatus , finishing the teardown and sandblasting the complete truck in the fall of 2023. The winter / spring of 2024 I went through the drivetrain /springs etc and and got it back on it's tires this summer. The cab was painted and the truck was put to bed for the winter until I get the Eng / trans sorted out. The eng is a Ford 2711 e diesel, 4 cyl , will be adding a turbo , and was mated to the ACME trans with an adapter plate , part of which is a M135 trans bell housing. That eng is not for the purist , but I wanted something different as I'm still running 3 flatheads dodges in Bombardiers and my other m37 plow truck. Timeline ... completed 2026 ...but you never know. K Armitage
