New guy, glad I found the HAMB. got this: 1952 International Havester L180 COE. Dual PTO's! I'm thinking tilt deck and Hyd. winch. Motivation is a big-ass 6cyl gas motor, and a 5-speed trans, no synco's. single speed rear. Get this - chassis has 5000miles on 'er. engine has been rebuilt tho, it probably sat and ran a pump for the tanker all the time. intake is below exaust, side draft carb, and dist. comes out side of block above oil pan. weird COE only stuff.

If you are into that kinda thing.
Very cool! I'm an IH guy myself, have small fleet of non-HAMB worthy rigs. Always glad to see an IH saved. I would love a COE one day. Keep us updated. There is some good IH related info on the binderplanet.com, not a lot of COE stuff but tons of knowledge to gain from none the less.
Looks like you have your work cut out for you, but not in horrible shape! Best of luck, and I am looking forward to seeing your progress. I love the COE's!!
