I bought a 57 International Harvester Metro with the big box in 1972. It had originally been bought new by the St Frances Pie company, a SF bakery owned and operated by nuns. It had a green diamond engine in it and when that threw a rod, I bought a crate green diamond and put it in. That thing traveled up and down the west coast and several round trips from SF to Houston. I wish I still had it.

There is a science channel I watch and the guy said that the coating around the rod is not only flux but also a solid form of the gas or a mixture of gases that when burnt adds the gas and there for crreating the right atmosphere and heat. Just found that interesting

Ian, a suggestion for the 38 Caddilac color. A Burgundy exterior with a saddle tan interior ! Check it out.Those 2 colors are classic together . I have a 2001 RoadKing Classic . The color is Ultra rich Burgundy Metallic. A beautiful color with gold flake base . They only offered it in 2001 . The saddle tan leather would be purfect together .Just a thought.

Very cool truck and you did a great job with the interior, I love the darker tones myself and just reupholstered the interior of my 88 Silverado with the oxblood in the black truck, nicely done Ian

i like what you did with the truck bumpers, the only thing i would have done different is tried to put some chrome bumpers on, just to keep that vintage look, the interior is awesome, love the ox blood red.

Ian that is a classic example of a real van and I really think that you should have either media blasted it or sandblasting it inside and out that way you can get rid of all of the rust have a great day

Knew some guys many years ago that put a 396 big block Chevy/turbo 400 in a Metro like this. Pulled a big trailer loaded with motorcycles behind it. Said they had to drop the engine to change the plugs.

There used to be a Dodge van that cruised Van Nuys that was decked out with a larger than full sized Harley with rider that used the front and back wheels as part of the air brushed "mural" that made up the paint. There have been others, this one was around the late 60s. We'd see it when it came through Oscar's at Saticoy and VN.

That was a nice build but I would have incorporated some kind of dome lights and 12 volt sockets and some speakers

Ian Captn Swabie here. Jam up job on the milk truck but my question is "what type of suspension did you use"? Air lift? Man that crate so low there is no way you can cross a speed bump in Florida?
