I want to buy 1961 M37 gas tank

Post by Kurtshalftrack » Mon Jul 31, 2017 6:14 pm

Hello fiends,

I am looking for an M37 power wagon gas tank in serviceable condition. Please let me know what you have and how much you want for it. Shipping to VA near Quantico. Thanks

I'm in a similar situation. I spoke with VPW and they said they were developing a M37 stainless steel gas tank that would be ready this year for purchase. Might want to call them and see where they are on that. The fellow on the phone told me it would be mid August 2017 at the earliest.

M101 generator trailers used an M37 style fuel tank mounted under the bed, most had the generators removed when they went to surplus so the tanks would no longer be needed. Downside is most of the generators were diesel, it preserved the tank but you will need to clean it out to before you use it on your Dodge unless you want a smoke generator. Start looking under trailers at surplus yards and MV meets.
