Kathy has been a blitz widow for 34 years now.
I had my first blitz a few years before Kathy and I started going out together, I bet she now thinks maybe she was just to young to realise the implications of what this was going to become. Just think how my blitz family has grown over the years even allowing the odd chev blitz to sneak in. Kathy wishes she had thought of putting a clause in our contract, but I would''ve broken the contract anyway. max |

wife number 1 didnt get the collecting buz Im afraid and departed for pastures new!however number 2 apart from being much younger has no problem with my collecting( as long as she is allowed to buy something as well!)...this time its an exercise bike!!!! tyre sizes are 18.00 x 20.00 I have no idea where they where sourced (CZ)...there are 6 spare wheels in the back but as of yet no idea as to condition of same!Russian sources form the Zil factory say the truck was reverse engineered from International K series although the engine do's have the look of a Dodge about it!best regards malcolm

I had a KB 2 International..1941 ..that I restored and it had a pre war Green Diamond 6 cylinder engine built by Rolls Royce..which was pre war..after WW2 International started building their own engines and installing them in their trucks.. so it may have been the Rolls Royce pre war version that they were copying..Interesting..looks similiar to the Dodge flat head 6.. ` ![]() ![]() ![]()
