New LoneStar Base on a D-39
 |
On the eve of WWII and after, The International D-Series set the pace for a rapidly changing America. Nearly 70 years later, this American legend became the inspiration for the 2008 International LoneStar, the truck that’s changing everything. The D-39 inspired one more original, the International DMAXX, a glimpse of yesterday with innovations that kick straight into the 21st Century. Building the DMAXX The DMAXX began life as a 1939 International D-Series “half ton” pick-up. It was found at George Mitchell’s Nollenberger International Dealership in Toledo, Ohio. In September, 2007 this D-39 was shipped to American Speed Company in Plymouth, Michigan, where it would be totally rebuilt and reborn. DMAXX was completed on January 22nd, 2008.

The traveling Truck Story, Map your Address
Some of us are attempting to develop a rally type of event, the “Traveling Truck Story” thread describes this idea. The map is to be used to find “the run” of the rally or rallies.
A third party map can be reached by the below link (use right click to save this page and open a new tab or window) it will show you the location of the folks from this board that have been there before you.
You can follow the below instructions to put your location on the map and upload a picture of your vehicle.
Below is a link to a map I have created for us to log our locations.
This may work, give it a try and let me know..
The title of the Map is “International Harvester Truck Enthusiast, Traveling Truck Host Locations”.
You can put your location on the map by:
1. Selecting the link below (or that button thing, it will take you to the Map, if you right click and open in new tab you won’t loose this page).
2. As a visitor you can add yourself by clicking on the ”Hi! Please Add Yourself” link in the pin ‘bubble’ that appears over their pin on the Map itself. (this description is from the map folk’s help instructions, I am trying to improve it.
