And the chassis and some other 1950s IH parts went away yesterday afternoon.

You're making some progress man. That's cool.

Yep. Getting rid of this 1955 Signal Corps pole trailer too, wheels are froze up hard. Going to the same guy that took my KB chassis. He's retired and has 10 acres I think it is, so he has more time and space than me.

Gee, why didn't you want the POS you foisted on me then?

Worked on stripping the Fsuperduty chassis of unwanted parts this morning and got the fuel sending units firmly secured back in their tanks.

The exhaust and wiring is going to the scrap yard, going with stack(s). Cut a bunch of unneeded wiring off. How she sits while I take a siesta and wait for the temps to drop a bit.

Fired up my steam cleaner this morning and cleaned up the chassis a little. Still need to remove some unnecessary brackets, bolts, clips, etc.

Rolled it back out of the way and set the KB cab on the flatbed.

Drug the Cummins/NV5600 donor rig out of the weeds and will start stripping it and getting rid of it. The engine, trans, brake and clutch pedal stuff will get pulled for the KB.

And it was hot so I am cooling off now.

Good choice of new chassis

I paid $2k for it, not a bad deal with the dump bed and axles.
