Any more pics? Those early low-cab forward IH trucks aren't a common sight!

I think that is a VCO, mid-late 1960s? IH cabover predating the Cargostar.

The very same cab used on the IH emeryville. This cab was designed by Diamond T. Also used by Hendrickson. The CO and VCO was very popular in the midwest and great lakes. CO models commonly had the red diamond 450 or 501 straight six engine and the VCO normally had the 549 v8. Should be able to use a resin emeryville cab to model one.

Griffen also had a couple conversions using the Emeryville cab. Can't say if he started with the Illini cab....

All it takes is two letters-- IH-- to get Chuck in a tizzy.
He probably wants the GPS coordinates, too.

No worries... I'll wait for Dave to get that D-series ready and on the market before I begin hounding the hell out of him to get an A-series Scout ready.

Ok here you go. This was taken about 5 years ago. All IH's. We have about tripled the size since this was taken.
