    @OLDSKOOLERnWV I went to look at a piece of equipment with a guy yesterday. Poked around while they were wheelin' n dealin' on it. Cat Twenty-two gas loader and a '56 GMC stake bed in the barn "been in here since the 70's I'd venture...", 1919 cedar shake swing saw, Lister-Petter diesels, old John Deeres, WWII Jeeps everywhere (oh, Dad used Jeeps when we first started hayin', musta been '59 or so..."
    Cool stuff

    Sounds like a good place to visit lol, love seeing the old iron still around without a Honda or Toyota badge on it.

    Lot of folks done small farming with Jeep’s at one time.

    I have an original hydraulic 3 point hitch for a Jeep in my stuff, along with factory built dual wheel adapters for the rear….

    So maybe it's just me, but I catch a glimpse of these HX trashinals and makes me think for the Generals, like a modern version. Only from the front.

    I've never been a fan of Internationals, outside of that one model with the stacked headlights, but I actually kinda like the HX520.

    Well they had them on early 9300's, late 90's 9100. Idk, over the years IH switches names and numbers like a rolling lotto. I know what you mean.

    The 9300, that's the one.

    The company my dad drove for before going on his own had 1 or 2 of them. Always thought those stacked headlights were cool. I remember they had an old S2500? International with a Jimmy in it. I don't think dad was a fan of it, he was normally in a Western Star.
