its almost impossible to find a good IH around here, i found a 79 chevy 8ft stepside bed, and it almost looks like the original bed just have to move the flares. im bringing to my house this weekend so more pics to follow this weekend

That is one of the coolest things i have ever seen in my entire existence thus far. so yes,please keep us posted....maybe i can add a section just for vehicle builds in general.....not just derby car build in progress....but something like"project vehicles in progress"

went and picked it up today from my friends house, then realized the rear axle needs some work, the tube on the pass side it broke so im either onna sleeve it and run it, or try and find a set of 4.88's for a ford 9" and put that in there. tomorrow will tell. heres a pic from today when i got it all loaded, first haul for my new truck(05 Cummins). truck was a little too wide for the trailer, had 8" hanging off either side

Too bad that money got tight and i had to scrap it, otherwise it would have been a good project, i have a friend that found 4:88 gears in one of his dads trucks, but its a lil bit to late now.
