Thanks,guys! I'm going to fix the brakes,(replace everything),and keep it bone-stock. I thought about adding another tail light,and turn signals,but that's not the way the truck came from the factory.This younger generation may not know how to "read' hand signals,though. Any thoughts?? Other than that,the Chelsea cable for the P.T.O. needs fixed,and the passenger window is cracked. There is virtually NO RUST anywhere on the fenders,or the cab!! Massage out a few dings,rub-out the paint,and call it "Good"!

My father ran K Model Internationals until his brother started selling GMC in about 1950. This must have been about the last of the green diamond flat heads. They were so quiet that when you stopped at a red light, you wondered if they were still running. You're lucky to find one in that kind of shape.

Willy! With your new International you continue to score "the big hit". More power to this Man, I say. ps: Sir, please, I beg of you, do not forget my name when you ultimately gain absolute control of the system. Congratulations, Charley.

Hey,Guys,(And Gals)! I went out to install the master cylinder,and started the KB3 for the first time,since installing the 12-volt Gen,regulator,and bulbs. I haven't received the runtz resistors for the eater and wiper motors yet,so I was just doing a quick walk-around. I noticed the P.T.O. shaft was spinning,(with the knob pushed all the way toward the dash). I pulled the lever,and the box rose to about the belt line of the cab. Here's a video of adding more hydraulic fluid,and raising the hoist! Thanks for watching!
