My late father was building one, but it is a '52 International L-180 snub nose.

Re: Any car haulers?

My current project is a car hauler, it's based off a 1988 GMC cab forward with a little turbo diesel in it, I'm still looking for the right cab , I really like the Chevy and GMC tilt cabs but really like the 55 to 59 taskforce stubby cabs also.

Hello Pat..After spending some time with you at the Macungie truck show Saturday and admiring the job you did on that truck I forgot to ask if your truck was used on the Carlisle 2018 100th anniversary banners.I showed one of my trucks in the display building last year and was able to purchase one of the banners which hung from the ceiling...happens to have a C 50 on it.Sure looks like it could be yours.......also here are 2 of the C 30 haulers I was telling you about....once again a real pleasure talking with you...Rob

Cool Re: Any car haulers?

Hi Rob,your trucks are nice as well, as far as the poster goes ,I went to the previous year Chevy Carlisle,and had only c50, all the details seem to be my truck, I wanted to go 2018 but didn't get 1966 lcf done.

Re: Any car haulers?

I regret that I had to miss this year at Macungie. I missed last year, too. Family first. But the old trucks are not too far back in second place! I bet that was a long ride in the pretty red truck. We ride from just west of Baltimore in my friend's '58 Reo (small Cat/Road Ranger swap). It does good on the hiway but conversation suffers and it just isn't the same as riding in a car or light truck. I'll be at Carlisle on B17-19 with a pile of junk laid out.

Re: Any car haulers?

Looks from here like a decent T-model cab. x2 on the Heavy Hauler action. I don't have much to offer. My computer pooped out, lost pictures, no SD card port on the new one and need a different type USB cable. Lost my flip phone, got a smart phone, but haven't linked it with my internet to go from phone to 'puter.

I had thought that I lost all my pictures once, but my local computer shop was able to retrieve them all for me. It's worth a try.
