    Greetings all ...... seems an intro is of importance ... so after some 3 years snooping, I think it's time. I've been playing with things with wheels since the mid 50's, when I first learned to drive in one of the family wheat trucks ... a 47 Chev COE .... and seemed to have caught the bug from that time on.

    First car was a 36 Ford 4 door, next was a 62 Pontiac , then a 32 Ford Vicky ... and so on. Had serious episodes of stupidity and sold those cool rigs long ago, but finally after retiring in 2000, started hanging on to stuff while building several .. and now have 3 in process. Of course I'm wondering if I'm going to be allowed to live enough years to get them all on the road. Latest is another COE ... a 1940 IHC D300 .... that will be my primary road warrior doing duty as the tow rig for a trailer hauling more rods, trucks and parts I'm sure I'll just have to bring home for future use?? (grin) It will be old in looks only ... having already started fitting it with modern power and ch***is.

    Hope to find a few COE guys with IHC stuff, and yes I've joined the COE group and keep looking at all that is going on there. Fascinating builds those guys do!!

    Once I figure out the best way of posting photos.... I'll send in a few.

    Welcome tinwizard.
    It sounds like we can probably learn some stuff from you, so now that you've done your intro, get involved over on the main board and have at it.
    Cheers.
