Bill, I meant to ask earlier, are those Ford 16" rims? What size tires? I really like the look and have been considering converting my Travelall to 3/4 ton.

They're 16.5's x 10".
That's why we picked up the 36" hummer tires. The speedo is 5mph fast so the larger tires should make it close.
maybe help the highway mpg some.

I was hoping for the 3rd row seat in black

Just out of curiosity, what else did you guys run across?

That's not an easy question to answer.
Lot's would be the first response but how much is worth cutting 5-10 yrs of black berry bushes to even get to them or even see more then about the size of a quarter peep hole thru the bushes to know what is there or what they are worth?

It's like peeling back the layers of an onion and it may be going on for a while.
Gravedigger picked up a scout that was actually kept inside.
There "was" a 1310 2wd truck that wasn't too bad but had no drivetrain.
That was the parts donor for the steering and brake parts.
It had a sliding rear window but when I checked it out the frame was pretty rusted and probably would have fell apart trying to remove it.

But the vehicles you can get to right now are mostly there for their scrap value.
There is a 71 scoutII. Which I seriously thought about. But would really like an 800b and 810 more.

A 59/60 B160? with 4wd and flatbed. Could be pretty cool but really ruff.

So I guess the actual response would be ...nothing. Maybe more later?

Glad someone will give it a good home. I drove that Travelall around for a long while. The family and I even made a trip up to a International show in Chilliwack, BC., and I used it to haul the kids back and forth to school everyday. That was 30 miles round trip, but the gas was 99 cents per gallon in those days. To bad the guy who bought it from me didn't take better care of it.

Cheers!

If he did....the son wouldn't own it now.
That's how we end up with all these IH's in our yard.

The son and I were coming back from getting the steering box and commenting how nice it was becoming and we were using all the parts that came with the travelall except for the EFI.
Wondering why it wasn't still on the road.

[gravedigger]

Thats true he probably would have asked a bunch more money for it.
