New to the Board

I am loaded and ready for the show tomorrow. Thanks to everyones help on here and home, I have made the impossible possible. Sorry for the bad picture my phone is broken.

Chris-
The truck looks great! I'm sure your grandfather will be utterly shocked and thrilled with the surprise.
Enjoy the moment; And, Hopefully someone gets a photo.

Such a Success this weekend! He was so proud! I will be posting more pictures soon. I just couldn't wait to give everyone the update! it may sound to good to be true but when we where at the show, which was on the Santa Margarita Ranch here in Ca, My Grandfather told me that when my Great Grandfather was 20 years old he ran cattle on this same ranch super creepy I know but so cool to make full circle. Thanks again for everyones help. Now june is the next show here locally. Some more fixes beforwe then.

Outstanding ,, you done good !

Two Thumbs UP!

Killer truck and great story!

YES!! I SECOND THAT!

Cool that it worked out so well! Your IH is definitely part of the family. I'm sure if you hang out by your truck at a show, a lot of other people will come by and share stories about themselves or someone they know who had an IH truck, too.

Thanks for the compliments everyone! This weekend meant so much to the family and I.

Now on to the new list before the next show.
1) Figure out Slipping Clutch Issue. ( Clutch is Slipping really bad. Maybe an Adjustment issue IDk)
2) Re-upolster seats. (Lower Seat is torn pretty bad and backrest is starting to tear)
3) Find "Era Specific" Wheels for the truck and buy tires. ( I want to find factory style wheels to put on the truck)
4) Wire Wench. (I can't stand not havign it working on the truck.)
5) Possibly Purchase Door and Window Seals. (Everything is pretty shot.)
6) Fix Loose Driver Door hinge. (I think the lower pin is Busted)

I am moving this whole thread to the appropriate Forum.
