First truck was in Michigan, a 1953 blue 1/2-ton Dodge pickup with the 230 flathead six and fluid drive and 3 on the tree. I bought it out of a barn half rusted out in about 1975 for $185. Drove it for a few years around town then sold it for a profit and started driving Ramblers and other 60s cars. Next truck was in GA, a 1971 International pickup, model 1110 with the 304 and 4-speed. Bought it about 12 years ago for $550. Fixed it up to be reliable mechanically even though it looks like a beater. Runs great. I have high regards for International engines and drivetrains. My oldest son rear ended 3 Japanese-type cars with the truck and totaled all 3, but we had the truck back on the road in 48 hours after the first 2 wrecks, but it took longer the 3rd time. The son is banned from driving the truck now. I also have an International D1300 1-ton 4x4 which was formerly a logging truck and stump puller. What a rugged beast. 392 engine and 5-speed and 10.000lb winch. Bought it about 12 years ago and keep it in the barn awaiting the zombie apocalypse. Runs and drives well.

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
