    Joined a long time ago, but never posted

     



    I joined years ago when I was building my 1965 Ranchero. Don't know why, but I never ended up posting anything. Now I'm working on a 1941 International K1 panel truck. I was searching the web and came across the site, and realized I was a member.
    This is my 1st attempt at building a street rod, but I've been playing with cars (and trucks) for over 45 years and have owned over 200 vehicles.
    Still not sure on what I'm doing with the panel, but I am thinking a MII front suspension, 2002 Ford Expedition IRS, 351W and an AOD. There's not a lot made for the old Internationals, so it's a lot of trial and error, and looking for old parts on the net.

    As I said on your earlier thread, Welcome aboard!! Since you're an old member, I guess you owe us some pics of the Ranchero!!!??!!?? At a minimum!

    It's good to see you here and hope you can share some of the Binder buildup!

    Besides, us blue oval folk gotta stick together!

    Don't have many pics of the Ranchero, we've been thru several floods and storms and lost lots of pictures and documents.
    It was a 1965 Ranchero with a '65 Comet Cyclone front end, 351W, 5spd, 9" with 389 gears.
    I do have a few pics with paint finished, and one of the 351W built. I'll post them when I can.

    You might want to look at that expedition front end also---leave out the 4 wd components and it will be a unit balanced with the rear componentry and probably of the weight range that the IHC
    panel needs--------at least a spare tire will fit both ends-----

    Jerry makes a good point, if you can snag the whole vehicle it might save you from searching all around. Just a thought.

    Welcome back!

    And hey - why not graft the entire Expedition drive train? AWD and sixty year newer components. It could be fun!

    Regards,

    Great idea, but don't know if my skill level or wallet can accomplish that!
