It looks excellent Paul, the color combination is very classy. Andy

That is a cool KW. Andy

Mal must really be cracking the whip over there, no time for a BMT update? Andy

I'm glad you brought them up, I will probably give them a ring next week. I was trying to remember them before, when I was after parts. They seemed to be a good, old school shop. I may bring the truck up there when it's done and have them check the engine over. Thanks, Andy

It looks like a 400 badge in the picture of the drivers side, but it is hard to tell, and who knows if it is correct. Andy

https://m.summitracing.com/parts/aww-500703 I am fixing up a 1969 International F210D semi- tractor with a small cam Cummins, after going through all the work to get it fixed up, I would hate to have it burn up because I reused the old wiring. I m thinking the 15 curcuit American Autowire kit I provided the link to should do the job as well as provide me with options to add other things in the future. I would think that aside from modifications to operate the fuel pump shut off as opposed to ingnition, it should be a relatively easy install. Has anyone used one of these kits, if so do you have any pointers? Also, is anyone aware of a harness more suitable to this type of application? I have used a painless kit in the past for a car with good results, but I believe they have become a little overpriced over the years. Andy

I have a 1968-1969 Cummins NHCT-270 in an off-brand truck, it seems to have a regular old PT pump on it. The factory mechanical tach is junk and I would like to get a new Stewart-Warner to replace it. Is there any way to tell if I need the 1:1 type or the 1:5 ratio? I'm totally clueless as to how I would figure this out so, I'm hopeful that someone here has run into this. Thanks in advance, Andy

Are you still lettering, or retired? A friend of mine used to use a guy name Carl Klouse (I'm sure the spelling is wrong). He was on the north shore of Mass, but I believe he got sick and retired. Andy

Very cool! Andy

Seems reasonably priced. Andy

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. Andy

Craigslist has become a favorite hangout of people with no money, but big dreams. That is the biggest problem with CL. To me you have it priced low, I suspect you will find a good buyer quickly. Andy

Wow, that is an interesting looking rig, very cool. Andy

Nice, I've never been much of a Ford guy, but that is a sharp truck. Andy

Hey Paul, that is terrible about your sister in law and the animals. If you want post or PM the address, I have a good friend who may be interested in the entire property. Andy

Not to disagree, because it may not work, but sometimes you can weld stuff like this, I'd try it. I would media blast it and grind the area needing to be welded, than put some heat to it and then blast and grind again. To me it would be worth a shot, but Id try to find a guy who is used to welding contaminated metals (fuel tanks come to mind). Andy

If it had the older style rims, it would look like a photo from an old sales brochure. The paint job is awesome. The automatic is a major bummer though. Andy

Yikes!

Hey guys, I'm back on this project. I worked on it through the end of December then moth-balled the whole thing for a while. I ended up gutting my kitchen, living room and bathroom, but it is almost 100% back together so on to some more enjoyable projects. I began rust repair on the cab, hopefully on the next month or two I can get some paint on that. I also hope I can get you guys to give me some information on the radiator/shutter assembly. I'm gonna try to get that apart and take some pictures then maybe I can figure out the next move with that. Here is a pic from when I stopped working on it late last December. Thanks, Andy

I guess it is kind of cool, but I don't get it. Interesting for sure though. Andy

Well done guys, I must say I would have considered pin striping that white car on purpose to teach them a lesson. Andy

I don't know much about them at all, but I have been told that it was common that a turbo be added as well as pump and timing changes made. Maybe that is what you have. Andy

Looks to have alot of life left in it. Andy

Great job, I think I have one of those brackets that you could have. Andy

There was a post, I don't know where it went. I think Mike had a pretty serious health scare, as I remember he was doing OK. I believe he was starting a lengthy recovery process a couple weeks ago. He had been updating via Facebook I heard, but I'm not on Facebook. I would hope that someone will chime in with more/better info. I hope he's doing well. Andy
