International Harvester Motor trucks (pickups)

Time line of International Harvester Pickups from start to end.....

[@francisjaniewski5990]

I'm 67 and I would buy a new International truck if they still made pickups. They were Real trucks.

[@International-qi2pt]

I love international trucks I am 16 and I have a 1954 IH truck from my great grand father and I am restoring it . it was in a field for over 30 years . the greatest name in trucks.

[@owenkelsey6279]

I would fully agree with that my friend.

[@chasemorgansunredfarms963]

My great grandad had a 1940 International flatbed truck. 6 cylinder gas in her. He bought her in 1947 after WW2. His hired man made two trips a day hauling apples about 90 miles there and back (from Omak to Wenatchee Washington). She served us from the 1940s into the 1960s. When we stopped using her, she sat, and sat, and sat. Then we decided to rescue her. She was in shit shape. We had to try out the motor. My dad, grandpa and a mechanic went out to start it, they doubeted it would work. They opened the hood. Which almost fell off, threw some gas in the tank, threw some oil in the pan, and put a battery in it. She studdered and roared back roared back to life. Those International engines are some of the most reliable engines ever made. We have since restored her. She is a beautiful truck. I am now fifteen, and cant wait to drive her. It is a damn shame International is not in business. As you can tell I am a John Deere guy when it come to tractors. I will admit, those International tractors will give a Deere owner a run for his money. International anything is awsome, whether it be a tractor, truck, or semi. They just plain run. Its as simple as that. That is my International story.

+CWMORGAN 4240 International is going strong as Navistar. I'm a John Deere guy having worked for years on J.D. Industrial (the yellow john deeres) I'm on my 18th International light truck. Just bought it a few days ago.

[@chasemorgansunredfarms963]

+Yamaha SR650 Nice man, how old a truck? Yea, my name, if you look closely comes from my favorite tractor, the John Deere 4240. Its an awsome tractor. 8 speed power shift. fun to drive, a little jumpy, but still a great tractor. I am working on restorung her now, new interior, fresh pain, wiring ect.

[@47485ksc]

+CWMORGAN 4240 I've rebuilt a few power shifts. JD used them in older scrapers. I just bought a 1967 1300C one ton dually pick up truck. I've seen a lot of one ton duallys but never with the Bonus Load box on them. I've been messing with them starting in 1977 with my first, a 1967 1/2 ton Travelall wagon. My "new" one has a locked up 304 V8 but it came with a (supposedly) recently rebuilt 392. Judging by what I found when I took out the 12 freeze plugs, it wasn't TOO "rebuilt"! I'll find out when I perform a compression test on it. it has no flywheel so I got to pull the 304 to use it's flywheel to spin it over and do all this before I start installing it. If you'd like to see it and others, go to: [e-mail]

[@justinmyslive4108]

Those International pickups were tough. Only one thing could stop them.......................rust

[@darthgraggus2690]

Three words in American English...LONG LIVE INTERNATIONAL. Anyone agree?

[@darthgraggus2690]

Fucking awesome Yamaha SR650. We have a 1968 International Pick-up;3 speed, dual tank and no emergency brakes. Is that just cool?

[@47485ksc]

+Darth Graggus Now, go to my gmail! (jeez...)

[@jamessmyth5949]

Long live International? They didn't live too long in their own right when the 80's finally hit. Probably a case of poor management and producing antiquated machinery that couldn't keep up with the times. I really don't mind International Harvester albeit the fact a lot of their trucks and pickups weren't pretty to look at. I mean an agricultural machinery producer with not a whole lot of dollars to spend on design and tooling is always more focused on functionality than looks...I can accept that.

[@scoutdogfsr]

Corn Binders. They made so many products. Love my Scout 800 and M1 Garand rifle. Both were born by this great company.

[@jameskennedy6982]

Wish they still made 'em, I'd buy one today, i remember them....what a truck!

[@Michigander79]

It makes me wish I was born back in the 40's and not the 80's. THOSE were the times. That was liv'in the life. I hate the way this country is today. All these spoiled brats being brought up in the world. Cell phones. We need a time machine

[@invt2707]

My 1951 L112 is still waiting for me to refresh the motor, and brakes. She sits in the barn with 120k miles on the clock... patiently waiting for me to do it. This helps give me that incentive! Nice job.

[@williame.portman4026]

Great vehicles miss them.!

[@Zotbot2329]

Used to go to work every day, in one of these..

[@cliffsaxon7408]

I Remember The International Truck Dealership In Huntersville, Alabama. Man Those Were Good Times!!!!

[@matthewwilliams9028]

Dad had a loadstar welding truck that fed a family of 7 and sent all is kids to college. He got to old to run it and sold it 25 years after he bought it new. That man loved that cornbinder.

[@wes5025]

Sweet memories DAD'S gone now ,but I remember those IH trucks HE drove for years.THANKS

[@delprice3007]

Thanks for posting -- great video!

[@kennethmorrison7689]

I'd have downloaded for just the audio alone. Very well done -- a real treat!

[@davidfer61]

Soon, I am going to start up a 1952 model L110 pick-up, which my father bought new and after going through several owners, it came back to me. Kind regards, from Uruguay

[@glennso47]

When I was in college I worked for a IH truck dealer as a parts chaser/cleanup person. In the early 70s. Lunde Truck Sales in Rockford Illinois

[@machtvandrie1372]

Thank you for taking the time to create & share this.

[@kwambam1]

Sweet to the eye and sweet to the ear.

[@boward6686]

Great video! Love seeing all the old trucks, it takes me back to a time when we had a lot of those trucks I just saw on the video! The internationals were great trucks built by great people who cared but now nothing is built with pride anymore!

[@ChessMasterNate]

It was a strike (1979-1980) by those "great people" that destroyed the company. It just could not recover the losses. Though, the company did a poor job negotiating with the union...the company having laid off most of their labor negotiators, as a cost-cutting measure.

[@defuse56]

In the late 70's I had a Scout with the biggest V8 they made, not totally sure of the displacement, but I think it was a 392 cu in. Man, that thing could even pull stumps! Gas mileage was terrible though so I finally sold her when I got older, had a family, and had an hour commute. Kinda wish I'd kept the old girl now. Ah well, it's like most of the stuff I owned back in the day; most of it would now be collector's items!

[@darthgraggus2690]

Good for you defuse56! I have,well, my dad have a International Pick-Up truck that use various things around the farm and all.

[@defuse56]

Ya, a farmer I worked for had one. That thing was about 30 years old and still going strong last I saw it!

[@darthgraggus2690]

Cool.

[@gerryroush8391]

I think the 392 was the biggest engine In 3/4 ton travelall And the 1/2 ton Both were beasts and the half ton pulled hard and the tires never spun I believe it pulled stumps, ours skidded out 40 or 50 inch diameter oak after limbing of course

[@brewmaster0507]

wish I had dads 72 IH tow truck yet. that 345 pulled anything!

[@47485ksc]

+brewmaster0507 "you are a fucking idiot." Just kidding! How's it feel, kid?

[@jlow1952]

I started work in Springfield IH in 71 on the pickup line, Then went to the Travelall line and put the instrument panel in till 75/76.

[@SteveHolsten]

We had 2 International trucks on my Grandpa's farm. WE had a 1962 & 1966 that we wore out hauling watermelons to the Memphis Produce Market in the early 70's

[@thecurtray]

on one labor day weekend i came home weighing 103,000 of melons. limit is 80. everyone made money. i hate melons. mine came from west texas.

[@SteveHolsten]

@@thecurtray We raised our melons in his field behind the house. We loaded a pickup load every morning with 3 of us. Then we drove them 90 miles to Memphis. That went on everyday for several weeks every year.

[@thecurtray]

@@SteveHolsten well you said you wore them out and at 90 miles i know you did also. i have 4 international trucks right now myself. one is so good i cant believe i own that. 1948 kb2 that did not get used for work. i still dislike watermelons to trade for printed cotton paper. we a odd bunch.

[@SteveHolsten]

@@thecurtray I still can't stand the thought of eating a watermelon after almost 50 yrs when I burned out on them. We raised stripe & Charleston Grays.

[@thecurtray]

@@SteveHolsten well at age 59 i just learned something new. watermelons have 2 names. worst fly attract i have ever seen besides horseshit. i live in city and there is horseshit on the curb right now. must be cops sniffing for weed at night. i burn mine in the daylight so i can see to light it better. stay cool friend. melon is cut come and get it.

[@williamelkins1613]

Great video anyway. Thanks you.

[@gregorybarth930]

Just got a 67 IH step side 6 cyl 4 speed missing slot of parts that I'm having a hard time finding. Pretty solid body and the motor runs, leaks slot of oil.

[@glennso47]

If I remember right IH made refrigerators for a time after WW2

[@vickikmetz3468]

yes we had a ih frig if you notice on the tv show friends they have one on the set

[@blueoval79]

they made freezers fridges and the first company to build dehumidifiers as well as window unit a/c in Evansville ind

[@carnut476]

THANKS FOR POSTING

[@guiovannygarciapoveda2239]

buenas maquinas mi papa tenia una modelo 71 pick up y en ese carro aprendi mecanica y conoci mas de media colombia

[@motorhead6763]

True for trucks.. Farm equipment and bulldozers etc all gone( now CaseIH).Check out a TD 25 dozer or a 1066 tractor popular in pulls...awesome machines.I have a 4900 and an Eagle..only trucks made in America ( owned) since Volvo bought Mack and Paccar ( french) own Pete and Kenny..IHC Navistar should build a HD simple pickup f450 size truck with the bullet proof 7.3 PS....A big stepside style bed like old power wagon. Pickups today are like rolling computers plastic. PS I raced yz250 MX back in the 80s ..xr650 cool design.Also had Norton Commando.

[@bossbwana5946]

I used to have a International Scout 2, I wish I still had it

[@Cre8Lounge]

HD 8 years ago? wow

[@MrDanoconnor]

@farmall51 The Only IH Trucks you find around here (Upstate NY) are Dump Trucks and most of them have been beat to Hell.

[@gestionhumana7782]

Congratulations IHC was the GREAT enterprise

[@winstonrocco1981]

Wish I could buy a simple truck like these

[@enterBJ40]

@ 6:07: a IH crew cab? never seen one before!

[@farmall51]

@MrDanoconnor yeah Id like to find a 60 model pickup or a Loadstar that has a flat bed on it .

[@davidfer61]

Very nice

[@leviridge3307]

have been married to a farm girl for many years , her daddy never cared much for me till i brought an international pickup

[@TheTractorguy140]

great job matt id love to have a 70s model 1010 custom whit a 345 v8 auto trans red an white 5 stars

[@Rinconmaniac]

[@maddog2771]

[@MrDanoconnor]

Well done.....I'm Hoping to find a IH Truck to tow my SuperA to the Shows....very hard to find decent ones up north in good shape.

[@dustins.97]

i run their old farm equipment. for some reason they keep ticking after 50-60 years

[@joeschlotthauer840]

1:13, what year...

[@genewagstaff5865]

With Cornbinders people either loved them or hated them. There is no middle ground. The closest I came to spanking my dad happened when he borrowed a Cornbinder pickup from a neighbor and had me haul trash to the dump with it. I said words that day I never heard during my time in the service. Needless to say, I have hated International trucks with a venom since.

[@home12345]

You forgot about Australian built international's

[@timmiles4198]

No a

[@farmall51]

This is just the north American buyers guides.

[@jehovalopez]

[@ColtonLloyd]

International made some good trucks back in there heyday

[@PapawMule]

The old K11's and R190's were the standard for workhorses in their heyday..

[@blueovalboy79]

I wish IH would start building pickups again. They weren't pretty or comfortable, but they were built to last.

[@olblu8746]

Most of lH trucks were good looking, these were a mans 🚚 truck, not a girls (pretty) truck. No offence meant.

[@blueoval79]

none taking, I have a 73 scout II and a 68 1200 tavelette. The scout isn't bad to drive, the travelette will build your muscles pretty quickly

[@brewmaster0507]

America built IH, and IH built America

[@47485ksc]

+brewmaster0507 They actually had factories world-wide, thus the "International" name.

[@brewmaster0507]

+Yamaha SR650 you are a fucking idiot.

[@brewmaster0507]

+Yamaha SR650 the pieces of shit australia and brazil made were a joke

[@brewmaster0507]

+Yamaha SR650 In 1902, J.P. Morgan merged the McCormick Harvesting Machine Company and Deering Harvester Company, along with three smaller agricultural equipment firms, to form International Harvester.

[@47485ksc]

+brewmaster0507 Can you explain why you' say something stupid like that, you miserable little PUKE? Don't you even know what "international" means? The company wasn't founded by a "Henry International", stupid. Now, calm down and try to keep your inane opinions to yourself, kid! (must be a Chevy man)

[@Aneuriizma]

I have one....... in Mexico

[@farmall51]

@1rezman1 thanks

[@4thstooge75]

IH trucks were good in the 50's & 60's But somewhere they became rust buckets. The ones they make now are nightmares the once great DT466 became a parts eating joke. The mechanical injected ones ran forever but when they went to electronic injectors they were junk too bad.

[@jeepguy220]

what no 74 or 75 pickups!

[@williamelkins1613]

Where's the D series?
