International trucks 11-1200 from the 1960's

Anyone have any or restored them? Might be going to look at one. Yes rust was a common theme.
 
I had a 67 Travelall. Cool truck, but just about everything has to be made as far as body parts. Look up at the bottom of the cowl under the dash near the pedals, if you can see daylight, pass or get it cheap. The cowl and lower A pillar area are the worst rust areas. If you buy one with the wide six wheel bolt pattern, be advised brake drums are not available and are usually already at their diameter limit. Its best to stay with a five lug halfton (brakes essentially Ford) or plan an axle swap to get serviceable brakes. If you get into '70s models, some can have Girling built brakes that nothing is available. International light line followers are an eclectic bunch and will help you out. Check out binderplanet.com.
 
BTW, 1000 and 1100 is halfton. 1000 means independent torsionbar front suspension. Almost no suspention parts are available for these outside of common tie rod ends. 1100 means it has a beam front axle with leaf spring, can be either 2wd or 4wd. 1200 is 3/4 ton and will have the wide six brake bolt pattern I mentioned on both 2wd and 4wd.
 
Got a couple of KB-7s that I wanted to put the best cab on a Dodge Cummins 1 ton chassis. Need more time and money......friend put a Diamond T on a Dodge chassis.
 
I got three running and several more laying around. Rust is not as serious down south . As long as you keep using them and keep the brakes up they work but never let one have the brakes go out and leave it for a period , much easier to find it and fixit right then. Can,t wear out the old motors, 304,345,396 v8s are all pretty solid and tons of parts out there.
