    Need a "Cornbinder" moved from 'ol Bamy to NC

    Thanks Rick. I have a nearly identical one on the property already that I hope to start working on this fall. If I can somehow manage to make one good running/driving unit out of the two, I will be a happy camper!

    The Official m101-series-bed-on-a-pickup-truck pics thread

    Are you referring to the canvas? If so, why couldn't you just get a standard M101 cover and have a canvas shop cut it down to size? That is what I was gonna try to do once I got everything else done.

    Need a "Cornbinder" moved from 'ol Bamy to NC

    Hey guys, Richard "wreckerman893" has what's left of an old IHC crew cab that I am interested in, so I wanted to see if anyone might be headed this way from his neighborhood in the near future (Sand Rock, AL to just north of Raleigh, NC). He did say that there would be several guys from this...

    The Official m101-series-bed-on-a-pickup-truck pics thread

    I was going to try and hook up with him and see if he might be interested in doing some welding work for me. Alas, he has relocated from Raleigh to Houston. :(

    delay submitting euc?

    I recently won an auction on the 5th. I dragged my feet until the 9th to send my paperwork in. I received a request for revisions on the same day...accompanied by a stern warning stating that if a DRMS-acceptable EUC form was not received by the 11TH, my account could be placed on hold until a...

    The Official m101-series-bed-on-a-pickup-truck pics thread

    As do I! In fact, I've been using that pic as inspiration and a benchmark for my own build. I don't plan on lifting mine quite that high though.

    The Official m101-series-bed-on-a-pickup-truck pics thread

    I've searched all around in this forum as well as a few other places and found a few, but I just wanted to inquire as to any others out there that I haven't yet seen. Post 'em if ya got 'em! [thumbzup] BTW I plan on using the bed from an M101a2 on my 1961 IHC Travelette. I bought the trailer...

    Best Gear shift knob

    As do I! I'm planning on having my Travelette set up in a very similar fashion. Going to run a 3053A in front of a Brownie. Double overdrive, baby!!! :mrgreen:

    Best Gear shift knob

    Um, close but no cigar. Sorry. 8-) Here's the kind I'm looking for in action: I would pay good money (but NOT a Kings' Ransom) for at least one green one as seen in the Mack Video. 8-)

    Best Gear shift knob

    Do any of you guys have (or know where I can get) a couple of those old school tapered plastic (acrylic?) knobs that usually have glitter/metalflake in them? I've googled my butt off and looked on eBay and pretty much came up fruitless. :( If you drove truck in the '60s/'70s, then you know...
