my old International

#1
I thought i would post one of my other projects that I am working on just for fun. I am in the process of putting this 1957 International S110 back on the road. I have been working on it for about a year and a half and I should have it on the road next week. It is just a driver, nothing real fancy. I kept the stock strait 6 and carb, I upgraded the interior a little bit and Dynomatted the entire cab, put in a hidden sound system, rewired the entire thing and put in all new lights. I guess Ihave done more in all that time but that is just stuff to get her on the road. I hope you enjoy. Anyone else working on any cool projects?

nice looking truck. did you lower it? dynomatt makes a world of difference. i dynomatted 1 of my s-10's and the road noise went away, and my booming system sounded alot better too. kind of pricey but worth it.

I have a 60 f250 that I have been trying to get on the road for about 2 years. I have it sitting on a 1974 LTD Chassis. That is a nice truck, are you a member of any of the Classic Rod web forums, like Rat Rods Rule or KillBillets?

PS Love Coker tires..

It's not american but... I'm working on a Triumph gt6 that my pop bought for me and him to restore. my mom got possesion of it when they divorced so i'm working on it so when i get my license, i have a car. I haven't done any transmission work but i currently have the engine in several pieces to put the new cam in. I put a Monza exhaust in and i havent started the car since so i dont know what it sounds like because i took the engine out and apart. It needs to have the transmission rebuilt which i am not going to do myself. here is a couple of pics when it got towed to my house. I am planning on keeping it as original as possible, and depending on if i have a job this summer i might put new carpets in it and have the chrome re-done.

That's sharp. I'm pretty familiar with your area up there. I used to bear hunt up on the hill behind Tioga in the SGL's. Do you know Randy Parthamore?

The door says "Mountains Micro-Brewery". My wife painted it on there for me since my nickname in the Army is Mountain and one of my hobbys is making wine and beer :smile:. It just gives the truck a little character. I like that Triumph, I keep trying to convince my wife that I need to get an old Triumph motorcycle to restore. She says I need to get my current projects done, she is just no fun. My truck has the original stance, I have done nothing to the suspension although it will need to be upgraded someday. Thanks for sharing your projects.

Nice! My buddy has a 53 for sale with mega patina and contractor lettering with 5 character letter/number phone# mostly intact! I had a chance to buy it for $200 till I showed him the rat rod movement! Now it is $1200:doah:

Great pics of the IH truck and GT6 projects. I used to work in a British car shop/dismantler. I've hauled several GT6s to the scrap yard in a big old IH truck.
