The Hannefords #6


"Tommy was reported to have said that while with the Downie Show he slept in a pup tent.
It appears to have been the case."

During our sentencing at the Swap Shop a few years back in FT Lauderdale,I showed a copy of this same photo to George and he proceeded to read out some numbers to me, then he said that was the serial number of that truck. It was an International and you had to have that number for parts he stated and said he would never forget that. I think I wrote it on the back of the photo I have.

Up until Cornbinder became Navistar

Jimmy you could get any part with

that number anywhere in North or

South America (unheard of today)

Lucky if they keep parts for more

than a few years for anything now

Still have an old Loadstar cabover

straight job in the warehouse
