1953 International R-120 build !

[DILLIGAF]

Wasn't expecting to be this much fun

Had to order different momentary 6 pin Switches today, Started fiberglass work for the switch panels.

Have to hard wire the motors directly since the BMW seat modules needs the BMW BCM to work...lol..

Never a dull moment when building a Rat Rod

Look up how to wire a remote nitrous bottle opener,same principle is gonna apply to each motor.You'll have to build a wire cross over on the switches

All wirering is done, Got myself some 1950s Mac Truck Cab lights , yes they are glass

 

[DILLIGAF]

250$ in copper is looking mighty fine. LoL.

Even put gas in the tank . If all goes well she's getting started tonight

 

[DILLIGAF]

Well first hurdle. Water pump shaft is leaking.

Ordered a new pump instead of a rebuild kit this time. Good thing I still have a few things to do on the truck while I wait.

As far out of line as the pulley is, it appears the bearings are toast.

 

[DILLIGAF]

That's just the camera angle, she's straight . The moron that rebuilt it is to blame on that one. And the moron is me... lol...New one will be here tomorrow.

I did finish the all the copper lines. Had to add a 3rd rubber union unfortunately for removal without having to take the rad out. That way will make maintenance easier.

Here's the video

Im so pissed, They no longer make new baseplates for the MAC truck lights.

So I ordered 5 United Pacific's

 

[DILLIGAF]

My Driveshaft is done . And it was only 485$ !!!!

Also done my Exhaust, Just waiting on Skull Exhaust Tip. I Still need to mount a **** for a spark plug as well.

Mounted my 1952 Gas Can and Ammo box .

I did find a super rare IH logo from a 1950 Power unit. Only made for 1 year. 40$ on FB marketplace.

What an awesome week so far. Picking up my New Water pump spacer today . as well as my Holley gas regulator.
