"Original"-- Technical Questions, Answers, Observations / Re: M606 Characteritics

« on: October 06, 2019, 01:10:07 PM »

Luis, though my jeep is actually an original '53 3B (with an unknown brand aftermarket tub), I've semi modified it's appearance to that of an M606 and back earlier this year, I moved the spare from the right rear to the tailgate using an original M38 tailgate with the reinforcement angles and tire bracket. To me this set up simply "looks better" than the spare hanging off the side and blocking the partial view of the right rear tire. That tailgate also having the reinforcement support for a jerry can bracket, I added one of those to the rear as well and received a lot of compliments on the rig at this year's 4th of July celebration parade!

Hey fellas, I'm another long time (and many) jeep(s) owner from the Greater Houston TX area. I'm a 70 year old retired firefighter, fire chief and fire marshal and began jeep collecting with a '46 2A way back in '66; (I've owned over three dozen since that time). I currently own a '53 3B (also a long time member of the 3B Page),  '52 M38, (both jeeps are older restorations), and an '81 CJ7. I've got 1/4 ton trailers for each of these, including a completely restored M100, an M416 and a very nice surplus Canadian M101.
