If, for whatever reasons, any of the above Forums don't quite seem to be the place you're looking for, try hanging out here for a while...it's Open, it's for truck folk, and it won't cost you any extra!

Hi, I have a question I would like to ask. I recently (last Feb.) lost my grandfather and he left me a 1970 International. I have been looking for information on this vehicle and I can not find anything. I would appreciate any information or websites that you could help me with. My grandfather loved this truck and he kept it in impeccable condition. Any help that you could give me I would appreciate. Thank You

I am looking to box my 1935 Chevy truck's frame.  Does anyone know where I can get a kit for the entire frame?

I seriously doubt there are boxing plates for even the front or rear portion of your frame as a '35 is somewhat rare and pretty uncommon.  Front or rear portions for my '56 Ford are available but I too wanted to box in my entire frame so I didn't buy these.  My solution was to make several cardboard (I think it was 4 per frame rail) templates and have a machine shop cut them out.  They were remarkably close to dropping right in but still needed some minor grinding to fit perfectly.  If you go this route, be sure to bevel the plate edges to create a gap for filler wire or rod and to promote good weld penetration.  It was a lot of work but I really like the outcome on mine.  Good luck to you and have fun!
