Drum roll..............

I am so stoked for my bud, Bob, we got to take the 39 Binder with the 4BT Cummins for it's first shake down last night. He left it parked out so I can get you all some pictures, they will be coming today (tease).
That little grease burner pulls really hard, amazing. I'm still grinning this morning.

 

[offroadrolls]

Ok, I'm trying, I'm trying. Darned old Dell won't recognize my usb downloader anymore so I'm charging up the laptop, see if I can make it work from there.

 

[maple guy]

Anxious to see pictures.

 

[Willowbilly3]

OK, here goes, we'll see if I'm smart enough to do this. Ok that isn't working, upload failed. Now I'll see if I can get them over to Photobucket. This is a pita, hope ity works.

 

[Willowbilly3]

OK, here we go again. Here is a link to the whole album, I can't figure out how to get 2 browser winws open on this laptop.

tell me if it works for you. Ignore the parts girl and rocky mountain brakes.

Personally, I'd put the fenders back on it. The front axle just sits too far back for open wheels, IMHO. The front needs to drop but that's about as low as it will go with the stock axle. Front brakes are homebrew of my design. speedway weld on brackets modified to bolt on, big chevy calipers and crown vic rotors on the stock IH hubs. rear end is Ford Exploder disc.
All i9n all, I love the concept and am glad I got to help a good bit on it. I'd like to see the front axle kicked out a foot or som lower front and chopped top.

He got the tail lights in last night, new windshields and headlights tonight. I'm bending up some huge Waukesha con rods for his headlight brackets.

 

[old man dave]

I agree about the front. Neat truck over all.

 

[Sam_Fear]

Very cool. It does seem like the proportions are a little off - the wheels are a little small, or it needs a section, or somehow it just sits high - maybe looks a bit top heavy. I think the axle back is OK.

That back window looks like art.

 

[Sam_Fear]

#5 Would be a good look to shoot for - axle looks to be in about the same place.

 

[Willowbilly3]

He did shorten the frame and the bed but the cab, grille and front end are all just the stock location and dismensions. I think if he would have just left the fenders on it would look better to me in that style. Still, it's a way cool truck and has went together pretty fast, like 6-8 months and he's driving it.

I'm liking it the untrendy way it is. It still has the ungainly International funkyness. Imho the wheels and tires are too wimpy tho.
