Club Roster & Introductions

[jmanderbach]

My name is Jason Manderbach. I am fairly new to the site, but already I can see where this will be a great resource. I have a lot of interest in buying and selling Internationals. I am located in Clare MI.

Welcome! There are several out there to buy in this state not to mention Craigslist out west. I have bought around 18 out west over the internet from Craigslist out west in various states. Always a market for them. eBay is a good resource to sell

howdy chaps, kevin bushong from gladwin,mi here. i have been an ih nut from very early on, my grandfather and father farm with farmalls and ih equipment ( ervin and floyde clore) and i have spent many hours on and around them. i have always collected ih tractors and currently have around 15 restored tractors. my ih vehicle addiction started as early as this february with the purchase of a 1961 b160 grain truck that i absolutely love! then i just purchased a 68 travelall 4x4 automatic from out in new york. ( i know most of you have seen it before as the guy had it listed here). i am in the midst of many upgrades and fixes on her with hopes it will be "done" soon. i have met many GREAT people as i have searched for parts for the travelall. including greg robinson from genes power equipment in coleman! ( great place by the way), his brother in law marty from clare, don minor in elmira, and many, many others! i have always steered clear of car shows and vintage vehicles from the most part to stick to the tractor shows as the car shows seem to add lots of "pressure" to have your vehicle perfect, or perfectly original, and it seems like your always chasing someone else who has something better. ( ok maybe that parts a little fun but anyway). but in the ih group there seems to be that wholesomeness that might not exist with the other crowd. anyway , i look forward to being involved with as much as i can be and i will post some pics of the ole travelall as it was when i bought it and as things progress.
thanks for the great site!
kevin

p.s. i couldnt figure out how to download photos so i will have to do that later!

Welcome Kevin,
It was nice meeting you and talking Internationals with you. It's always nice to meet others with the same sickness and just a few miles away! That's a fine looking Travelall, I've always liked the later model "old body style" Travelalls. See you around. Greg Robinson, Clare.

Hello Kevin, it was my pleasure meeting you a few weeks back, please stop in anytime! Great looking Travelall!!

Regards, Marty

Hello SEBA member here. Just wanted to introduce myself and say hi.
I'm getting out of the Marines in a few weeks and we will be moving to Marinette WI.
I'm orginaly from Nebraska. Ran a few Model M's at the ranch where I worked while in high school. I've been in for 12 years. I'm an aircraft mech. As of now I supervise a machine shop, weld shop, paint shop, and sheet metal shop.
I'm selling my 77 Scout right now. But once we get settled I'd like to get another one.

Hey Guys-

It's been a long time since I've been on the forum. Now that the Nationals are moving to a new location, I figured I'd get back in the game.

My name is Brian Hetrick. I have four Scouts (see my signature).

I just moved to Fowlerville, MI from Brighton, MI. My wife and I just had our second boy and time to work on my Scouts is limited so I'm looking to farm out some of the work I need to do!

Can anyone recommend someone to rebuild the V304 out of my Aristocrat? I'm looking for someone who has done several V304 rebuilds and has the experience to incorporate many of the improvements that are discussed on the forum pages. I'd like to find someone local before I call Super Scouts for a recommendation.

Please add my name to the Great Lakes Binders group too!

Thanks!

Brian, there is a completely rebuilt 304 on eBay right now. Bid is 600 bucks and the guy is from Michigan. Might wanna look into it.
Good luck!
