Popular Post Willie dog Posted July 18, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted July 18, 2017 Here's a few pics of the latest project to leave the shop. It's a 1960 International R 190 I "fluffed up" for a customer to haul his 1952 Caterpillar D2 that I also restored for him. 12 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/50510-cat-on-its-back/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
hurstscrambler Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 What does the IH have for a engine? I wish you were closer to me, I'd have you "fluff up" a couple of my projects if you wanted.

Willie dog Posted July 19, 2017 Author Share Posted July 19, 2017 The International was in pretty good shape with an older restoration. I removed the lettering from the doors and pinstripes from the rest of it...overhauled the carburetor and rebuilt the sloppy accelerator linkage. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/50510-cat-on-its-back/#findComment-375253 Share on other sites More sharing options...
fxfymn Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Nice work. I cannot recall the previous owner's name, but wasn't that truck out of Bridgewater, VA? Ex fire truck I believe.

Ex fire truck I believe. Yes you are correct. I can't recall his name either. Nice old truck. He said the grill and original fiberglass fenders were from an old firetruck.
