Brings back great memories. This was an old Saunders Leasing truck out of Montgomery, Alabama. I used to run with this bunch up the east coast and midwest. My favorite truck of all time was a "72 Transtar that I bought with about 800,000 miles. Straight 250 with a 13 speed that Conagra used to haul grain. If I had only kept the thing.

HEY WILEY. YAAAY you're like a really cool grandpa...ooh I see a new hat there...cool...my dad had a 1980 transtar. I was a baby boy but I remember it he used to drive for north American van lines..he would drive the whole thing down our residential street and come scoop me and my mom up and take us cross country with him .

International trucks are really nostalgic to me. My Grand Father used to have one of these, and my Father used to have an 80 PayStar 5000 International and sold it about 5 years ago! I don't know if you can believe it or not, but these trucks are still on the road in Iran!

[@DontbeWily]

I believe that. Thanks for sharing Thank you for watching

[@mikeking7038]

In the west its “cheaper” to borrow the money to buy a new truck than to keep an old one on the road. In canada they are buying old semi trucks putting them in containers and shipping them to nigeria. Its crazy. the new stuff we buy wont last nearly as long as the old trucks, its ass backwards.

[@Charles-qt2gx]

Wiley, for a lot of years I was a mechanic for logging and roadbuilding companies and dealt with the same type of equipment you work on. During my career, I have had only two batteries blow up, I was lucky once the drivers door was open and protected me, got just a little acid on my coveralls and once the batteries were on the opposite side of where I was standing. After that, I started wearing safety glasses, figuring I had used up my luck. Just saying think about it. I am old and retired now and just mess with my own stuff for entertainment, love your videos keep it up.

At one time back when I was still a child, "INTERNATIONAL TRANSTAR II" were a number one choice amongst OWNER OPERATORS. I knew of four families myself who owned one, Most of them are either dead or retired by now. But they all told me they were inexpensive to own and maintain, And they were tough as nails then.

My dad started out in a International in the mid 60's as an independent. Then later a Ford cabover, both being worn out. He was leased to Dealers Transit. Around 68-69 he got a much newer F model Mack. With a powerful V8 & twin exhaust. Then he leased on to Melton Truck Lines. Love those old cabovers and learned to drive in them. My truck was a late 80's K100A Kenworth with an industrial KT450 Cummins 15Sp.
