Thanks to everyone who has watched, enjoyed and commented on this video. Alex is my "Outlaw-in Training" we spend not nearly enough time playing with the old iron. I didn't know he was going to post this on youtube, but it has really made me proud of him and his dedication to trucks. I made my debut in the left seat at 14 years old, then my dad was sleeping behind me at the age of 15, in a L-190 International pulling a flatbed on a narrow 2-lane highway. I'm only 71 years old now, I had to sell the KW due to a stroke and a brain tumor. Now we are building a 1950 International LD-405 like the yellow one seen in the video. (that one went to Florida). The 50 has a Big-Cam I Cummins, 7&4. Hopefully it will be going soon, we will make a video!Keep on loving old trucks!David McNeill

My dad was a trucker, we never got along, the dude scared the hell out of me, and he was not too fond of me, but one summer during my summer break and part of the fall, he needed some extra help, so he put me to work and taking me with him on his wood/log hauling trips.4:30 am - 6 or so every evening, 5 days a week, we never bonded, and that fall I moved out ...but my dad drove truck all through my youth and some into my adulthood, spring summer fall and the hell of those freezing cold Canadian winters. I realized how hard he worked and how lonely it got for him out on the road, before he took me along with him, he had a huge stuffed animal , and put it in the passenger seat and that was his company. The man worked long hard hours to put a roof over our heads, food on the table and clothes on the back. The older I get the more I reflect and think back to that time with dad in the truck, and the love and respect I now have for him and all he did.

no power sterring. I drove a 1987 freighliner coe it had ac but no power steering I hit a bump my head hit the roof. It was harsh. My first ride over I-40 heading towards Kingman AZ I smoked the brakes with 44000 lb of Levis I can believe I didn't wreck. Jake brake nah no such thing ., There was no air ride. In 1989 my company gave me a single bunk COE witha set back axle it was a lot better and it had ps. In 1990 I got a new double wide bunk freightliner bus with a cat engine I thought I was in heaven. I got pulled over at brownstown TN DOT and the nasty prick made me lift up the bunk and there was the owners manual and he said what is that and I said I don't know looks like a owners manual he made me take it out. Big deal then he shut my truck down for some lose bolt on the trailer I want to add that I worked for this horseshit company called KLLM for 3 months it was with qualcom early computer. This company was the worst, well I worked for worse. KLLM in 1990 did not have fuel guage in the truck you had to check the fuel with a yard stick and KLLM didn't have a heater in the tank if you ran into frigid weather your fuel would jelly if you didn't buy something, KLLM made me sleep in a bunk house at the terminal in Jackson MS it was the worst company ... I made it 4 months. This is not the company I am talking about above hauling Levis from Waco to Henderson that was triplce crown.

Like Mr. David said, no power steering, no air conditioning, and a great loud sounding engine. I sure was a lucky little girl. I used to sit on the cover between the seats and check out the road.
