M37 project ends for RockingK It is with much sadness and excitement that I see Sam find a new home😳. About a year ago Sam came to me without warning and plans were soon set in motion. Then came Trigger (1974 Bronco). Sam was put on the back burner and Trigger got all the attention and still...

Sorry for the random updates, been busy with other projects. It took a while but did get it running and driving. It was a host of issues, starter solenoid, coil (probably not necessary 🙄), ignition components but finally the one I believe was the culprit was the ignition module. After I got it...

Done deal It took a little longer than I thought but finally got it running and drove it on the trailer, power washed and put in its stahl waiting to be revitalized. It sat for ten years in the forest but survived and seems to be pretty solid considering. It has the sport package with dual fuel...

Starting point pics So Easter was celebrated with family and friends and I hope everyone enjoyed theirs. Now I am doing a photo document for disassembly and reference for when it goes back together. I found a remake water pump from China for cheap and thought I would try it. Still trying to...
