TW: meaningless vintage car/truck drivel.

While I wait on the 4th tire to get fitted onto the amazingly annoying rims for this thing, figured I'd share a bit about the truck.

1925 IHC Model S Speed Truck. All original other than the wooden bed (which has been rebuilt with mostly original hardware). I've spent the better part of the past year and a half fixing it up. Originally with the help of an amazing mechanic, then on my own.

There's a local mechanic in town that is apparently able to work on the generator, so that's on the to-do list.

The ignition key was recovered, but the ignition circuit has effectively been hot-wired to a pull switch...so that's another item.

The carburetor was original, but was a 1925 Zenith, which featured a zinc core surrounded by a cast iron shell...they came out of the box cracked. Replaced with a Stromberg -- same era, slightly different configuration.
