IH 9670 Trailer Toter "Paint Done"

[Tamiya Cowboy]

Well here is a project I started about 8 months ago after seeing a really nice looking IH 9670 Toter at the flying J so I wanted to build one but since I did not have any picks I did not get too far on the build at the time but a rolling frame and a shorten body. Well after tons of Ball Busting by dear old Dad aka Freddy and seeing Izzy's toter and I also started doing some repair work for a local mobile home company this week and got to look over there 4 Fords really close I started into it again. After changing the length of the frame 3 times in one week and MORE Ball Busting by DAD for picks last night and today I got it right I think.

So here is were I ended up late last night..



So now I think I am finally were I need to be to get the look right so I started on the bed of the Toter..


Next the back wall and the locker under the tire rack.



Next the sides out of .80 and the locker door.





Here is a shot of the C Channel I used to make the side stronger.


Another shot of the the back with the tread plate on the bed and a hunk of brass C Channel.


Other side done.


Now the cab is lowered and I also cut down the stock stack and took a stock tank and removed the top step off the tank and mounted them. And in the bed added the 2 lower supports that make the frame stronger for the pogo stick i am going to try to make work. So here is were I finished tonight..




Now I have to do the tank and the stack for the other side tomorrow but let me know what you think...
