Description:
1954 Dodge M37. Parade ready. Excellent metal all around, clean and well preserved, no rust. Near museum quality example.
- RARE AN/GRG radio transmitter and receiver. Worth near $1,000 on its own - New Old Stock condition (!). https://radionerds.com/index.php/AN~GRC-3
- NOS fording kit still in box - these have been gone from the market for years (not shown in pics). I have seen these go for $600 or more
- New NDT tires (note that the lead pics have the old tires on, new ones are in later pics). that was $1000 bucks
- Rebuilt generator
- Rebuilt carb
- Pioneer kit
- Newer batteries /cables with cutoff switch
- Excellent canvas all around
- Mounted jerry can
- Differential gear oils changed out a few years ago
- Engine is in great condition but needs a repair - see below.
- No rust underneath. No rust on floors. No rust really anywhere. This is well preserved.
- Unique set of custom seat belts attached to the read benches in the bed - all set for the kiddies to ride in the parade
This M37 went through a full restoration probably in the 2000s, and I have had an antique car mechanic looking after it periodically - plenty of $ spent. You will see, upon inspection, newish parts all over. Garaged always. Lots of parades with the kids.
Issues: (1) a tapping sound has emerged in the engine - I can send a video with engine running before, and after, it emerged. My mechanic retired last year so I have left her sitting for awhile without a repair. She is otherwise mechanically sound.
(2) brakes will need adjustment.
(3) oil change due
Offer price is firm and discounted to reflect need for the engine repair. You can easily see the quality and the value evident in the remaining pics.
This is a GREAT M37 in original configuration for a starter military vehicle collector, and is a great parade vehicle.
My kids are grown, my mechanic has retired, and it is time for this truck to move on.........
It was so much fun!
