ranchhopper Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 Is that corn coming out of that big yellow building on 34 just east of the river? Used to see them hauling out of there all the time stored a mountain of corn behind it too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vladislav Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 Women are sure nice creatures but for some folks they have difficulties to win concurence with trucks. Mike, thank you for sharing. IH firetruck looks neat and uncommon. 1 Quote Никогда не бывает слишком много грузовиков! leversole 11.2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No,I've hauled into that place though.That one holds several million,and there's even more in the actual town of gladstone,just a couple miles north on 164.

Heres how it looked a couple years ago.Last year he strecthed it with a air ride clip,which had budds,I had an old '73 western Star I was junking with a budd front axle so he got the front swapped to budds too,then he got the sleeper from me also,just got finished putting it on. It's got that early '80's,outlaw steel hauler look to it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Grandpa had 2 IH single axle tractors the same model as the firetruck,I'd really love to have one someday to paint up like one of them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That LTL is solid as a rock,he got a good find there. I hope things go well to,we are taking it to Housby Mack in Des Moines,they have a really good body shop and the main guy has been there for years,so he's seen his share of R model cabbed trucks.They do all my friend Chad's trucks. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

41chevy Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 All nice, but I'm partial to the White 9000, the I.H. fire truck and the Dodge.

jake Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 I love that LTL. It is good to see an original one. A lot of LTL,s you see at shows now are Peterbilts in disguise. I hope that never happens to that one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
