Ok--I've done a lot of work on it, and don't remember seeing it..... Just went and looked--there are four holes upper left that looked like a plate had been riveted--about 12 inches wide, 4 inches down. I suspect that the data plate for the snogo was once there, but it's long gone. Just made the the road wider with it, three feet deep, about a mile of plowing. two week old snow that had thawed and frozen. Ol' Lucky spit it all out like it was fresh powder. They sure as hell don't build 'em like they used to. I also have all manuals (operating and maintenance) and parts lists for the MH and the snogo. Thanks much for the offer!

Lucky's got an International Red Diamond 450 rear engine. The exhaust manifold had gotten water in it, froze, and cracked. I looked all over the place for that manifold; was finally able to gingerly weld the cast on the old one, without burning it up. Seems to be holding up fine; I would like to still find that manifold, tho. Got the books from a guy in Colorado. I'm reluctant to give out his name; he did me a huge favor, and I don't want to abuse that. If you need something, maybe we could work something out? The plate inside the truck is missing, too.

That blue sedan delivery is the star of the show. It's the prototype of what was to become the Ranger. To my understanding it is a "one of one". Stu
