Hey Fellers - Wow, there are some nice bikes on here! We picked one up at a garage sale a couple years ago and I am wondering if anyone can tell...
Yeah, the 32-33 IH's are a really sweet body style. I never could find one in my price range though. Very few ever come on the market. Thanks,...
Now that's pretty funny!! It probably wasn't required to make it legal but it keeps the HOA off my case.
That is a really cool find, BinderRod. Enjoy building 'em!
Thanks for the feedback, fellers. I knew the pipes would polarize people one way or the other....that's why they are removable with four bolts on...
Thanks for the feedback. I struggled with the stacks for a while and made sure that they are easily removable should I get tired of them. Lakes...
I am still working out kinks in the driveline, adding glass and such, but for the most part it is together and driveable. Let me know what you...
Nice find, LT4. Media blast the bodies and put a thick coat of primer/filler on 'em and the pits will all but disappear. Think twice about...
Very impressive!!
Make memories while you can! Life is too short not to enjoy it. Great story...thanks for sharing.
I'll pay you double what you paid for it.
Those are some sweet lookin' rides, y'all.
Dang, I wish I had a bike. I spent all my time trying to get my truck ready and I'll still cut that close.....maybe next year. It looks like a...
Looks pretty sweet, Toast. I like the dash pinstriping and tail lights. Can't wait to see it on the road.
I just saw your thread after I bought paint for my truck today...I went with IHC red but matte or shiney is still up for grabs. If I can figure...
THANKS, James D!!!! That gives me a much better idea of what it will look like.
The body is now sealed....paint is getting close....dang, I wish I could decide on a color.
Hi - Would someone please show me what a color change looks like on my truck? I am interested in a white firewall with either this green color...
Hopefully, it will be running and driving art someday soon! :-) Thx. The exhaust manifolds are Speedway Motors ramhorn exhaust. They enhanced...
It has now come a long way from where it was in the last post...about a year's worth. This is the chassis now in rolling form. The body is at...
Howdy - I cannot make up my mind on a color scheme for this truck....would y'all help. We finished up the body work yesterday and it is in...
There are a lot of details to iron out before blowing it apart for paint, but you get the idea..... One pic below is how it went home and the...
Thanks. Well, it's time for an update. The project is still taking shape since it is at the shop but soon it will be back at my place to put...
Very nice truck, Big Banger...fenders and all. This one did not come with them and the fenders on the first one I started were going to take...
So, last time you may have noticed that it is on its own wheels now. Keep in mind that everything is just roughed in and tacked together. These...
That is a sweet little project, Rocky! I like the way your hood sides and exhaust is laid out.
The actual progress on the truck is looking much better in the mock-up stage. The engine, radiator, and steering gear are now installed and the...
It's been a little while since I posted, so here goes.... I got to playing around with a grinder and white spray paint for white wall tires. It...
Next up was placement of the engine/trans and building the trans tunnel/floor. The progress that is being made now is mostly mock-up and rough-in...
Thanks. Do you have pics of your K2? Progress came a little easier with this part of the build as I had done most of the planning earlier and...
