1951 Dodge Other Pickups

I have a super clean 1951 Dodge M37 T-245 WOW ( with out winch)  that I am offering for sale. I didn't do the resto on this truck so I'm going off what I was told by the previous owner and my own research. I was told the restomod was done in 2009-2010 by a guy in Oregon. It has a MATCHING NUMBER FRAME stamped on the outside of the frame. nbsp;driver side. in front of the front tire 80011491.   It has a dodge 318 cubic inch casting # 2536030 318-8 sounds like it might have a mild cam. sounds great idling. small Carter two barrel carb #2378 looks new. automatic choke works great. Engine is Mated to an NP435 casting # 2508034  d-3 8-17-64  435. I can't quite read the all the casting # on the transfer case but I was told and it looks like the NP200 to me. The emergency brake works very well and the" twin stick " 4x4 selector and low range move easily into 4 wheel drive and low range. all the linkage looks new underneath.  Has a 2 into 1 exhaust that comes out just in front of the driver's rear tire. with what I call a cherry bomb muffler. sounds great. Whomever did the restoration had great attention to detail and it shows all throughout the truck. It doesn't look like the inner fender wells or firewall were cut at all for the engine swap.  All of the wiring is brand new 12v with a new fuse block located on the drivers side of the firewall. with a custom clear cover. nbsp;all very nicely done. Electronic ignition mounted on the passengers side of the firewall. Headlights have high and low beam(foot switch) that has a little blue light for high beams on dash. running lights. nbsp;turn signals front and rear. 4 way emergency flashers. lighted rear license plate holder. horn. electric wipers. nbsp;and most important for Oregon. it has a two speed heater/fan mounted under the glove box that will blow you out of the cab.  The lever to operate the " Cab cowl  air " located under dash in front of gear selector. nbsp;looks new and operates like new. the area around the cowl and under the dash are in great shape.  Nicely mounted saginaw power steering box. steers with one finger. nbsp;has a power steering cooler that you can see in the pics in front of the radiator. Both front windows fold out from the bottom and both lock. both doors open and close very nice and the windows both roll up and down nicely.  Both doors lock from the inside by pulling up on the handle.  All of the gauges are working Temp. fuel. volts. and oil pressure. The speedometer works and it has just over 19500 miles which are probably original but who really knows. mileage will go up on sunny days. The seat looks great with a black pleated vinyl that looks very nice and has two retractable lap seat belts. 70/30 split bench drivers side hinges forward and the passengers side has the original latch.  All off the gauges and speedometer have lights. all the lights can be dimmed or turned all of the way off and blacked out by turning the headlight knob.  There is a new battery located under the passenger seat. The gun compartment under the front of the bed looks brand new inside. The gas tank looks new as far as you can see in it and it has the can filler extension in the neck that you pull out about ten inches and lock into place for filling with cans. the cap is hooked to the extension with a chain.  The paint is Olive drab and is in great shape. The body is in very nice but it is NOT perfect and the hardtop and the truck have a few mortar casing dings in them  ( that's my take anyway ). It wouldn't take much body work to make this M37 perfect.  The hard top is metal and is removable. I have seen it called an " Arctic hard top " on old truck forums. it has a really cool sliding back window with a cool old latch that locks it. The drive lines look brand new as well as a lot of other components on the running gear which I believe has the stock 5. 83's. The front hubs are a cool twin lever made by Dualmatic. the Dual-Matic flip-lever hubs. two little levers on each front hub pull out. spin around. push back in.  Little tiny letters say "free" on one side and "lock" on the other side. nbsp;all spin around very easily. The tires are all BIAS ply denman 9. 00 x 16" are like new on 5 lug 16" split rims. spare tire mount in bed but no spare. pioneer tool rack on gate. nbsp;but no tools.  Has a pintle hitch on back with grease zircs that looks new and rotates 360 degrees so your trailer can be angled on rough terrain. There is a four flat plug wired in ready for your trailer.  This M37 Runs. drives and stops very good. probably as good as when it was new. but it is very low geared and 40-45mph should e as fast as you plan to go. I have not tried to climb a tree yet but it is more suited for that speed.  I have driven it over 600 miles with no problems. and where I park it in the shop it leaves no oil.  Looks great underneath with very minor seepage from tranny and transfer case. all the rubber seals and weather stripping on the fenders. nbsp;doors and windows look new.  This truck had normal Washington state plates when I bought it but it qualified for Oregon special interest plates( 65 YEARS OLD ) which never need tabs and that's what are on it now. Looked for a cummins / disc brake running gear swap candidate for a long time. thought this was the perfect one. nbsp;but I'm not sure if I can cut this one up or not. I have a ton more pics. Email if interested.
