They are by Speedy Creek. It is up to me (dad) when to get them. The P.O brother has a towing company who comes to Saskatoon empty frequently though.

First though still gotta pick up my 1952 F-1 from Kerrobert one day....

Namely brakes and carberation. The carb needs a kit but I can't spare it not running since it is my transportation. And as for the brakes don't ask, I just can't figure the fridgin problem then the P.O broke parts in the drums when he took them apart they are a absoulete mess.

I could ask a neighbour if we could borrow a carb, I think that maybe he`s parked his 84 F150/300-6.

Well once I get the IH back on the road (2-3weeks I'm guessing) then I will be able to spare it enough for a carb job. Then I'll bring it into some shop give them a blank check and tell them to get it legal, get all 4 brakes working properly, Ebrake setup right, fix whatever prob with them too. lol

I know Ford nevere stuck with the same carb on the 300 for long. For some reason Ford always used odd ***** on the 300. May hook up but setting up throttle etc. may be a pain plus manual choke. The carb isn't too urgent should last me another 3 weeks but thanks.
