Great looking IH's you have there! Did you have to restore them

or did you get lucky and find them in that condition?

I buy my -68 this condition from USA.Picture is from last summer and this time it runs with Finnish license plates.

Black -66 isn´t so good what it looks in picture.I start restore it next autumn,I hope.We have such little Internationals here in Finland.At 60s-70s comes about 20 Travelalls(most ambulance) few Scouts and about 100 Loadstar trucks(most fire trucks).

Welcome from not so far away… :)
Nice looking rigs. Keep us posted on progress, we all just love to know. By the way, if there's no Finnish International Club you can always join up with the Swedish one, check out: http://www.ihsweden.com and also feel free to check out my webpages for build and other info.

And then allso about 15-20 fire trucks.Must be think Swedish club…Fine pages both Swedish IHs and Pauls own pages! Here Finland allmost all Internationals had been ambulances and firetrucks.How about Sweden and other Europe?

Jukka,

It's about the same here in Sweden. Most IH's were ambulances and fire trucks. There were a few non-service Travelalls and pick-ups, but most were service vehicles. Scouts on the other hand there seems to be quite a few of.

Now I just have to pick up the pace on my own project and get my '64 ready to rock! ;)
