I stopped keeping track of how much i had into the Ox at $10,000...
Mrs Rod only gave me $5,000 for the Binder, so I'm "kinda" keeping track of how much is left in the piggy bank... but I still need to pay off the $3500.00 that my father put into it.
I love the internationals C-1 pickups from 34 to 36. My 34 had all wood doors, floors and mechanical brakes. The brakes were so horrible I broke the pedal trying to stop to avoid an accident one day. I totally rebuilt the mechanical brakes and they were good for about a week, then they needed to be readjustment. I finally rodded that truck mainly due to the brakes. The juice brake came out the following year with full metal doors. I now know where the expression "standing on the brakes" came from. I had to stop that truck using the steering wheel as an ancor point for leverage. Only vehicle I had with mechanical brakes that were that bad...
Good luck with yours and if you need any help drop me a line.
Dave
