1948 International KB5 "Whiskey Runner"

Overview:   We purchased this 1948 IHC because it was a cool looking rig.   Upon inspection back at the shop, we found a solid body but that we needed to "redo" just about all mechanical, electrical, steering and suspension.  Starting at the rear, we rebuilt the axle and installed air ride air bags and triangulated 4 bar set up.   Then we moved to the front end.   Revamped front suspension/brakes/steering, then dropped in a GM crate 454, new clutch, rebuilt trans, etc.   Now (spring 2015), we're turning our attention to the interior.

Plan:  turn into shop truck/wheelchair hauler for Alex.
