International Comes Closer to a 1 Ton Pickup!
Designed to meet the specific medium duty needs of businesses, the International TerraStar offers everything you’ve come to expect from an International, like best-in-class visibility and cab size. And it offers the world-class performance of the all new MaxxForce® 7 engine, with 300 hp and the only no-hassle emissions technology available in the market.
With commercial-duty bloodlines, the International TerraStar sets a new standard in medium duty trucks. So it has what it takes to carry on the International legacy. But more importantly, it has everything you’ll need to carry your business to a whole new level. |

JGs Travelall Resto + Rear Qtr Fix  
This Travelall was purchased on Ebay in Calif. 3 years ago, with the help of Jeff Ismail it was made ready for JG to fly out & drive it home. It seemed to be rust free and was above average for a Travelall, but the rear quarters were repaired about 10 years ago and were getting thin again. Tony Clark (SSS Previous Body Shop Manager) now proprietor of Silverback Custom Works (Springfield Oh) took on the project and came up with a solution to repair the rear quarter wheel area, which is the most common problem with this model, by cutting & using the front fender wheel opening section from a any 69-75 Pickup or Travelall. The work came out great and it even looks natural, the wheel well ends up being bigger which is good for bigger tires. We had placed new trim on the vehicle, the problem was that the very back section was too long because the wheel well is larger, this trim piece was 31", the solution was to use trim from a Scout Terra or Traveler (the section between the rear wheel and door) which is 28", it is a perfect fit. To follow the project with photos click on this link and if you have questions, just email Tony Clark through his website. http://www.silverbackcustomworks.com...mworks_038.htm

WHAT DOES AN INTERNATIONAL PERSON LOOK LIKE? 
Ladies and Gentlemen, When Mrs. JJ and I were in Greenville a few weeks ago, I had a couple of members say to me and to her that I did not "look like and International guy". Of course we saw the humor in all of that as, yes, maybe I don't, but it got me thinking, what exactly DOES an International guy or gal look like? So, in the interest of posterity, and all, I decided to try my hand at writing a short essay on "What Does an International Person Look Like?"
WHAT DOES AN INTERNATIONAL PERSON LOOK LIKE?
Here is an interesting question, what exactly DOES an International person look like? We might be 6'2 or 5'2. We might be overweight or fit, bald, long hair, wear camo or a tie, there are no boundaries. An International person comes from all walks of life. It doesn't matter where we are from, we are from all over the world, hailing from such locales as the cold north, the deep south, the far east, or the wild west. Our occupation or social status is not a factor. Enjoying these sturdy vehicles is what has brought us all together. It is all about that we share a common interest in preserving, driving, restoring, rebuilding, painting, sharing, and running our rigs as they were meant to be. From the most beautiful restored and perfect rust free trailer queen to the most rusted hulk that is somebody's dream, under all we are united in a common bond. We probably have or have had grease under our nails and have shuddered as we filled the fuel tank. But the bond is strong, drive your IH rig, encounter another IH on the road, and you will get the IH wave. Heck, do to the uniqness of our rigs, you probably know each other anyway. Folks everywhere who are not owners wish that they were. We get comments everywhere we go. We reach out to share with each other. Parts, knowledge, advice and wise cracks are traded freely. Together we are what makes the hobby fun.
