The link works for me.... Here's the link to my set http://www.flickr.com/photos/5944886...th/5652096556/

Jeff @ Spectrum will be the surgeon, I'll be the surgical resident I still need more time observing before I pick up a torch. I've done plenty of plumbing but this is much more delicate.... The fade paint job while sort of cool, is definitely NOT me. Way too LOUD!!!! That paint was put on REALLY THICK, it took over 3 hours of stripping to get most of the paint off. I still have a lot of detail sanding to do but, it's ready for some work. Oh yeah, it's a 74 (I think) International that someone moved braze ons around on already so I'm not the one who started the alterations. I already have a "stock" 74 International and love the way it rides so I'm building a second one that is exactly how I want it.

Thanks Aaron. You are the beginning of this whole build....

I'd like to have the whole thing chrome but, when it was repainted, they sanded the chrome and pretty much ruined it. I had a line on a chromer in York Pa but, he never got back to me. Supposedly in the $250 range for a full chrome job. So, it will get a two tone paint job w/ contrasting lugs. Oh, I'm running barcons instead of D/T shifters
