Now that is an interesting co-incidence. At the auction sale where I bought this R160 the other bidder had exactly the same plan. Cut it in half behind the cab and make a trailer out of it. The engine wouldn't start at the auction but it didn't take me long to get it running. I knew it was too good to cut up.BigDaveinKY said:I always loved those model IH. We had a '55 half ton pick up when I was a kid.
I don't remember what happened to it that made Dad cut her frame in two with a hacksaw.
But, it made a good trailer for the farm, and the hood made a great sled on snowy days.![]()
