<p>Oklahoma just started having the seller keep the tag when a
vehicle is sold and when you buy one it gets a new tag. That may
be the way we get around it. My wife may be owning a lot of them
or I may have to put it in the farm name. I have to check how to
do it. Guys had been going to a title consultant who would file
something with the state and it still cost $300.. <br>

<div dir="ltr">It's an arm and a leg to re-plate one that has been
un-plated for several years here too. All excise taxes, wheel
taxes etc. but I found a way around it and have used it a few
times. Title processing is reasonable and if you just sell it
everything starts over clean. Nothing due to the state. Scott
owns a few things now. Any vehicles and trailers all go to him
anyway so I am slowly transferring stuff into his name now. Most
of my stuff is old and of fairly low value so they don't really
care about it.
<div>I once had to have a police check of a title for an old
trailer I bought for $200. When the officer stopped out he
just signed the paper. He said "We don't care what you do with
a $200 trailer..." :-) In KY they don't even plate small
trailers. Here they plate any trailer you haul stuff on but do
not plate tow-able tools like cement or mortar mixers or log
splitters, trenchers, limb chippers etc. a couple of the
things they do where Scott works is underground boring and
pipe bursting. The state questioned the boxes / racks where
they haul the stems they use but finally decided that since
they were only used on those machines and they were not
hauling pipe it was OK to not plate those machines. I don't
know why they even questioned them, it's not like there are
not hundreds of those things on the road.
Bureaucratic silliness I guess.</div>

<p>I found Rock Auto has a lot of old stuff available.
Fooled me. I was looking at their catalog last night
and found kingpin and bushings for the old 66 C60 And at
reasonable prices... I ordered a lot of suspension parts
for my 98 Chevy C85 from them last year. The biggest
gripe I have with Rock Auto is that sometimes on a larger
order it will come from 3 or more warehouses and there is
a shipping and handling charge for each one. They have
some warehouse liquidation buys that are really cheap and
high quality... Here is a link to that IHC water pump

I have on old 75 3/4 ton 4x4 IHC that had a 304 but I
had a 345 in a 1 ton and swapped them. I also swapped the
power steering box to the 3/4 also.. <br>
</p>
<p>Here in OK if we don't tag a vehicle in 2 years it costs
over $300 to tag it. It used to be $0.25/day up to the
price of the tag then double tag for the penalty and they
only went back 2 years. For an old truck or car, it
would run no more than $100. Then the state got broke and
greedy and it went to over $300 depending on what tag
agency figures it... `We can put a black sticker on the
tag that means it will not be used and no penalty will
accrue. I have a bunch of old trucks that have black
tags because the mandatory insurance law would just break
the budget. It is $27.50 for a black tag sticker. To
insure a 2 ton or larger farm truck is about $50/yr on a
farm fleet use. In OK every vehicle on the road must be
insured. In Arkansas, a farmer can buy a liability policy
for about $300/yr that covers him driving any vehicle he
gets into. OK is run by the oil patch and the insurance
lobby, so we don't have a chance to save on insurance....

I always have a soft spot for old trucks. I have an old
1965 IHC 1600 Load Star that I don't really have any
reason to own. My tandem axle trailer or even just one
of the pickups is all I need most of the time. If I need
something heavy hauled son Scott can bring something
home from a small trailer up through stages of
goose-necks and his take-home ton work truck through
heavy tag behind a single axle dump, a tri-axle dump on
up to a very long trailer semi. I do work very hard to
not abuse the privilege and to mostly deal with my own
stuff as much as I can.
<div>I have not plated the IHC lately but try to keep it
viable. All that it really needed was tires and I
found a set of 6 (2 steering and 4 lug type) that
someone had bought new for an old truck and then blew
up the engine after only putting a few hundred miles
on the tires. You can still see the mold marks on the
face of the tread. I hope to get those installed this
summer and some little stuff. Oh, yeah, it also needs
a passenger side running board (or a step ladder). It
has a very good twin cylinder hoist and a good step
plate floor in the bed. I hauled a lot of grain with
it before I retired and occasionally a load of stone.
I would love to have a two speed axle for it, it is
geared quite low. It's just a 4 speed (first is granny
gear) and it sounds wound out pretty high at 55 MPH in
4th. I can't justify a 2 speed so I'll just keep good
oil in it and change it often. It won't get many miles
on it.</div>
<div>Speaking of rambling...</div>
<div>Son Scott just bought an old IHC pickup
last Saturday. It is a 1973 4x4 with a 345. Quite a
bit of body rust but not a lot of dents and the frame
looks very good. I believe it was last plated about 3
years ago. Under the hood looked good and original,
not butchered up. He got it started and said that it
was only making the noises it was supposed to but the
water pump was froze. Probably not a big problem.
Stuff is fairly well available for the 345's.</div>

auction yesterday. I should have bought the 6600 JD <br>
combine that sold for $2000, but I didn't want to
sleep with the cats in <br>
the barn.. Also picked up a 32ft Field
cultivator/spring tooth. If I <br>
take off the wigs I have a 12ft one and a lot of spare
parts!!<br>
<br>
I went after the 66 Chevrolet C60 w/ 20 ft bed &
hoist air tag axle, <br>
Shurco tarp and Westfield drill fill auger. For $2000
I figured the bed <br>
& hoist was worth that. My drill fill auger needs
a new auger and it is <br>
over $500.<br>
<br>
The truck looks like it has a 366 engine. OEM would
have been a 348 or <br>
409 I think.. This has the valve covers of the 366
& 427 but only a 2 <br>
bbl carb so I would guess 366. It has a very worn 5
speed transmission <br>
and a 2 speed axle that shifts ok. The cab is not in
bad shape for a <br>
66. If I can swap the power steering gear from a 67
or 68 model I have <br>
here, then I can change to the smaller steering wheel
and maybe fit <br>
behind the wheel. Either that or lose 100 lbs. I was
looking at <br>
shortening the steering column as it can move forward
under the dash If <br>
I shorten the steering tube and re-cut the splines on
the steering <br>
shaft. I have a 18ft tilt bed hoist I would like to
put on this one. I <br>
have a 427 & 5speed in another truck that would
give it a little more <br>
power. The 366 did not seem to really have a lot of
zip to it, but this <br>
truck has only been used about 50 miles a year for the
last 10 years. <br>
If all else fails I can hop up a 350 with 10:1
compression and propane......<br>
<br>
It is a lot of work, but I have this soft spot for the
60-66 Chevrolet <br>
trucks. I rebuilt a lot of engines in those years for
hopped up farm <br>
trucks. I had a 52GMC 2 ton with a 16ft bed &
hoist that would haul 300 <br>
bushel at 70mph. Back then we did not have the
traffic on the highways <br>
we do now...<br>

Just rambling......<br>
