The truck was purchased in 1988 after I advertised in the Selkirk paper for an M37 with a winch. At the time I owned another M37 that did not have a winch and I wanted to put a winch on that truck, as it was a very good truck. However, the new acquisition was stored in Winnipeg and the truck I wanted to put the winch on was stored out at the lake. Because of the close proximity of the new truck, I started taking it apart and eventually it was disassembled completely. After that, I had the pieces steam cleaned and then sand blasted. All the major components were painted by Frontier Toyota body shop when it was on Fort Street. The engine was rebuilt by Piston Ring and the transmission and transfer case by Central Standard Transmission. The winch was done by Prichard Engineering. I put all the pieces back together. The truck safety inspection was done by Mobile Brake and Clutch.The M37 was used by the Military up to about 1978. It is rated at 1500 lbs cross county and 3000 lbs on the highway. The Canadian military purchase these trucks from late 1951 to 1955. In the USA they acquired these trucks starting in late 1951 and continued acquisitions through 1968. Mechanical parts for the trucks are readily available from dealers in the States and many but not all body parts are still available. Tailgates, front fenders, driver’s side doors, are difficult to find NOS.

The trucks have fairly low gear ratios, 5.83, to enhance the cross-country capability, resulting in lower highway speed. Many owners that are not driving cross country have changed the differential gears to 4.89 which result in slightly higher road speeds. Most American trucks do not have a hard top and were equipped with a canvas top that can be removed. The hard top is just bolted on and could be changed to a soft top.

The military had various add-on kits to adapt these trucks to various conditions or uses. For example, there is a fording kit to allow these trucks to drive through water up to the depth of the drivers head. The fording kit is included with this truck and has extensions to extend the exhaust pipe and air breather vertically to allow operation under water. All the wiring harness connectors are individually water proof connectors. The spark plug wires, distributor, generator, voltage regulator, etc. were all sealed with water tight connectors. A hot water cab heater was a kit for cold weather. This kit is mounted on the left front fender. It is a NOS kit and is mounted on the truck. An Arctic heater kit was available to heat the engine coolant and circulate hot water through a heat exchanger in the battery box. This equipment was fired with gas from the fuel tank and electric fuel pump. One of these units is mounted at the bottom of the passenger front fender. This get is also NOS(new old stock). The arctic heater kit, because it was gas fired allowed the operator to warm up the engine anywhere without electricity.

Hennessey Dodge Demon sets hellishly fast quarter-mile time

Wed, May 9 2018

The Dodge Demon doesn't strike us as a muscle car much in need of a performance makeover. After all, this 840-horsepower MoPar machine's voracious quest for straight-line speed means it trims weight by jettisoning everything from a front passenger seat and rear seat, to its stereo and all carpeting in the trunk. The folks at Hennessey apparently think that's not nearly extreme enough. So, the Texas-based tuning outfit has turned the Demon into a 1,035-horsepower mega beast that runs a quarter-mile in 9.14 seconds at 152 mph. That's fast, really fast. In fact, the HPE1000 is now the world's fastest Dodge Demon, having set its record-setting pace at Lonestar Motorsports Park on May 8. "The 2018 Demon is a street-legal rocket from Dodge, but we wanted to take the car's impressive track times to an industry leading level." said president and company founder, John Hennessey. For comparison, the stock Dodge Demon is credited with running the quarter-mile in 9.65 seconds at 140 mph. The main HPE1000 modification involves replacing the stock 2.7-liter supercharger with one that's a staggering 4.5-liters in capacity. Also included in the Hennessey toy-chest are stainless steel long tube headers, a high-flow air induction system, upgraded throttle body, upgraded fuel pump and fuel injectors, along with custom engine management calibration. When all is said and done, the HPE1000 Dodge Demon delivers a total of 1,035 horsepower at 6,500 rpm and 948 pound-feet of torque at 4,200 rpm. While the standard Demon accelerates from 0-60 mph in only 2.3 seconds, the Hennessey variant trims this down to only 1.9 seconds. That's quick enough to make a Bugatti Chiron blush. Hennessey hasn't stated what all this will cost, though the company did say production of these devilishly fast Demons will be limited to only 50 examples. Customers also receive a 1-year/12,000-mile warranty, which seems a nice touch for a car that's downright scary with its performance specs.

2019 Ram 1500 features an updated Ram's head badge

Fri, Jan 19 2018

Full-size truck owners love to make a statement. That's how we've arrived at the mile-high grilles, acres of chrome and belt buckle-esque badging you'll find on trucks like the Chevy Silverado, Ford F-150 and Nissan Titan. The new 2019 Ram 1500 made its debut this week at the 2018 Detroit Auto Show. While the sheetmetal and grille are the most obvious visual changes, the ram's head badge quietly got a modern redesign. At first glance, it appears to be the same badge that's graced Dodge and Ram vehicles for decades. Look closely and you'll see that this new one is all squared off, ditching all the curves for straight edges. It looks chiseled rather than carved and is a far cry from the detailed Ram's head that made a debut back in 1981. It also incorporates the new "RAM" lettering that replaced the crosshair in the truck's grille. View 4 Photos Little things like this do a lot to keep a vehicle fresh. Dodge seems to be the only automaker capable of changing logos anymore. Ford and Chevy are stuck with the blue oval and bowtie, so why not take advantage of a newer nameplate?

These Canadians somehow forgot how to drive in snow

Tue, Dec 6 2016

Montreal drivers experienced a slow-motion pileup on their streets this weeks thanks to the first snow fall of the season. According to the CBC, slippery conditions caused a small pileup involving cars, buses and even a street clearing vehicle. Onlookers in neighboring office buildings watched as vehicle after vehicle slid down Cote du Beaver Hall and crashed into the scrum of waiting cars. First there was a city bus, then a white Ford F-150 work truck loaded down with ladders, then another city bus came along and sandwiched the poor F-150. A Montreal Police Charger then came down the hill backwards, hit the bus in a slow, sad crash before it was crashed into by an out of control plow truck. Since its posting yesterday, the video of the crash has gone viral. Various other vehicles–a green-topped Scion delivery truck and a couple workaday sedansÂ–were lucky enough to escape the pileup, but still suffered through a white-knuckled slippery descent down the hill. Colin Creado, who works nearby the crash site, told the CBC although it was pretty slippery, he was surprised at all the carnage since the storm was forecast well in advance. "You would have thought ... they would have salted the area or at least cordoned it off, because that road is pretty steep," he told the station.
