While visiting a cafe in North Vancouver, I came across the small International P/U.
I think it is from the '40's but I could be wrong. It looked to be in good shape generally. The 'moons' look like something from the '50's but the truck I am not certain.

Looks like about a 1951 or 52 IH model L-110
Thanks for the info. I thought it may have been older than that. Then the 'moons' may be good with it.
yeah thats a 51 or 52 ihc theres one in our field at the farm that was my grandfathers, i like how the dashes look in these
That body style started in 1949, but the first year had flush door hinges. Your pic seems to have the deeper door glass, which makes it a 53 or 54. Can't see the grille to be certain. By '55, the rear window was one piece, and different front end. Door windows deeper yet.
Cute truck, though I prefer short boxes. The wheels don't look like 16's, they're probably Mopar or Ford rims. Same bolt pattern.
I'm guessing the green one above is a 1954 R-130, 127" WB. 16" x 6.50 six ply tires ( 6 on 7.25" IH bolt pattern ) white rims with stock hub caps.
Here's another classic example short bed was for sale on fleabay.
Instead of starting a new thread, 57 and 79 IH respectively together.
Dog day afternoon
57 Cab and chassis, custom suspension, later model engine, trans, TC, axels, disc brakes on front. All IH
Looks like Towmater. The truck not you.
:LOL: I think it has a new name. :LOL:Quote:

Like a dummy I sold it to a junkyard for $50. The 57's have a nice looking body style. I would think this day and age they are very rare.
It's taking a long time but I'm finally starting to like the body style. :)
Here in New Zealand they were called the AL and AR series, the A to show they were built across the ditch in Ausbloodytralia, and were therefore right-hand drive. I spent many hours, years ago , in an AR162, the seven ton tipper version. The "2" in the 162 showed it had the Eaton 2 speed diff.
They're nice looking trucks.

Here's a link to one on a N.Z. Hot Rod site, (if you have a look around that site I'm 'johnboy' there too,) the blue light on the cab roof was a regulatory 'thing' in the late fifties early sixties...you had to show a blue light forward if you were towing a trailer at night.
Thankfully now rescinded, but Graham has retained it as it is from the trucks era.
What's with your truck being so far off the ground? Do you have big pot-holes in your neck of the woods? :LOL:

International's new concept vehicle. the D Maxx.
Before I married my wife she had bought a 46 or 47 International pick up, she asked if I wanted it I said no, she sold it for $40. If I had bought it she probably wouldn’t complain about my junk today, I could lay the blame on her for getting me started. At the time I was more into Chevy’s and Fords. Now any old car or truck is fine.Quote:

My father in law used to have a real nice 39 International PU. It was all original and was fun to drive and take to shows. He ended up selling it to a guy from Wisconsin who was looking for a parade truck. It would have been very nice rodded, but being what it was, I was glad to see that it was maintained as a antique.
'39 was a great year for IH. They used the D cab into the 40's on the larger trucks. The K5 was originally a 2 ton.
Vietnam era, 1973 Loadstar 1700. Has the 60s cab with a full tilt fiberglass front end. Gas powered sv392, 5/2 and juice brakes. :D
