    Many of you won't like what I built but its a nice daily driver. Its a 36 cab bed and grill. The dumbass before me decided he didn't like the origal fame and scrapped it. He sold it to me when he decided he was too stupid to finish any kind of project. This was a budget build while I am waiting for the falcon to get back from the body shop. Total build price $1327.56 167.2 hours clocked. Let me know what you think I know you won't hold back:D

    I'd throw some fenders on it, fab some lake style headers and drive the wheels off of it.

    It's really cool just because it has the IH engine in it. Is it a 345 or 392?

    I love seeing those old International valve covers. The tall cab throws me though.

    I agree with the idea of having front fenders, especially with that suspension. Otherwise, go with it.
