Travelall bodies and Mallory?

[jmbrodsky@domain.elided]

Ken,

     The body up to '71 is different from the later ones in the 
front end.  I managed to get a front clip from a '70 pickup for 
free (Thanks Mark) and the entire grill and fenders are 
different.  The logos on the fenders in the early ones are the 
long style, while the later ones are about the size of a business 
card.  The grill has different tabs which make part swapping 
impossible.  I was very disappointed as I like the early grill 
(steel) instead of the big aluminum one on my rig now.

Hope this helps,

Hey,

Looks like I may have found a 1970 Travelall body in excellent shape
that I can replace my slightly rusty 1974 body with.  

But, what does a 1970 Travelall look like?  Also, I'm assuming that
the body mounts would be the same, does anyone know if this is so?

Thanks,

Ken Farmer

     Doug,

          Wait!  Isn't Duracell a subsidiary of Mallory Inc.?
I guess the pink bunny finally wins!

Subject: Mallory, bad news

I called Summit this morning to order my new Mallory distributor and got
the bad news.  Mallory is shut down indefinitely, bankruptcy.  Mallory
owned SuperShops.  SuperShops bankruptcy apparently dragged Mallory down,=

too.

Anyone know of a place that has Mallory's IH distributor (276-1701) in
stock?

Doug
