1964 International/Howe ex-National Park Service
#11
Well as I was afraid, the "back ordered" rear brake shoe order was cancelled by the company I ordered them from. Seems everything I have read about no one making them is true. I did some research and it doesn't look to hard to reline the shoes and since the truck has just over 13,000 miles I'm sure the steel portion of the shoe is ok so I ordered the material needed to reline them myself, wish me luck.

 

On a more positive note, the good folks at the Everglades National Park were able to fine a couple documents that had pictures of my truck so they scanned them and emailed me copies which I posted below. Guess this confirms it was indeed used at the Everglades National Park.
