Smile Original M-22 Found

Received an email a couple of days ago from a previous owner of the T-37 that he had found the original M-22 for my T-37. Alaska is a small state. He has rebuilt it and is ready to go. I have a correct M-22 and will work out a swap or sell mine for cash and pay him.
I will be back up there late this month.
Have pictures of it and s/n is there except last two digits.
Great news.
Now all original drive train.
Doesn’t get much better than this.

I don’t know the backstory, but that sounds great.

HeavyDuty Congrats to you Jack.

i knew you ordered/bought the car new, but was not consciously aware that you had ever sold it, and eventually got it back later.

Hope it wraps up smoothly for you

Your car has been in discussions before in the past, several times.
But i can't remember everything about everything anymore ....

What were the production totals for 71 T-37 455HO cars ?
Auto / 4spd
Hdtp / Post

Another member on here found an Automatic 455HO T-37 Post Car about 10 (+/-) years ago.
Haven't heard anything else about that one.

That's great news Jack! I never knew that you bought NOS RAIV heads the same time you ordered the T-37. It sounds like you had some bigger plans for the car if you kept it back then...cool story!
