RE: [ihc] Travelette X2

["Ed Sohm" <idaemes@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I'll bet it will look good with a flatbed.  I don't think I've ever seen
a crew cab IH with a flatbed. I know I've seen some with dauls and
flatbeds but not crew cabs.  

So I went home over lunch and with some emery cloth and a light touch I
was able to clean the black paint off of the VIN plate and the safety
sticker.  149 in wheelbase, 7500 GVWR, built 6/71.  So it would be a
'71.  

I'm downloading pics of the thing on the firewall right now.  There is a
screw on it that says "voltage adjust" or somesuch.

LOL!  Yes, brakes are *very* good to have!

LOL!   The 1310 I'm trying to get transported has a utility bed at the
moment which has been on it since originally purchased (or shortly
thereafter).  The CO wants the bed though, so it'll be a chassis cab
again
when I take delivery, just like it was from the factory.

I haven't seen any pictures of dually travelettes other than this, so
I'm
wondering how it'll look with a flatbed on it.

;)

Thanks,
Ryan
