If you're looking at wagons I saw this yesterday... Spec sheet reads nicely?

Regards the IH, great to be different, but as a project a nightmare if bits are missing. I'd always try to go for complete and running when possible, so that someone else has had the nightmare.

If only they had appreciated as much as "E" Type Jags....
I must admit I have never made money on a car, but then again I have never expected to make money on a car, nor have I bought a car to make money on it.... but my choices have been 'odd' and will no doubt continue to be so
P.S. I love the truck by the way....

buy it
find out when it was stripped and bargain on 1 thing going missing every month since.
if the bloke selling it stripped it you are in better position
nightmares start with a project passed around like a hot potatoe.
everyone keeps a part of it as a garage ornament by accident
build a relationship with the seller so if anything turns up that should have come with it it can be Ron Fenton-ed over
looks like you'll need a nice big box of bolts and screws but if the rest is there...mega.
most things can be fixed with bits of ford Cortina and Hillman hunter

You know what, 5 years ago I'd have said the same but now I love these quirky 50s/ 60s cars. The more character, the more different the better!GJUK wrote:That car has fallen out of the ugly tree, hitting every branch on its way down.
I've told the seller I'm out, but I'm already regretting it
No-one will believe you...
Buy it
There's a guy on retro rides, goes by the screen name of Grenade, he buys IH pick ups, strips them and puts the body on Durango's.
I bet he can supply any parts you might need if you were to buy it.
Doesn't seem to have any trouble finding complete trucks either
