I beg of you, please don’t swap an LS into that truck, keep it IH

[@ralphhowes]

Seeing and hearing that old International fire up was a beautiful moment.

[@chuckhaynes6458]

Love those old Cornbinders. Engines that seemingly run forever (even though they won't pass anything including a gas station). 727 Torqueflites are the best automatic ever built. MoPar race cars from the '60's and '70's will attest to that. Looks like a winner for a shop truck that's just a little different.

[@cloudninephoto]

Very cool. We don't get anything like this in the UK. You guys have all the fun. Don't worry about all the hatters on road noise. They're idiots. ❤️.

[@daviddavis4444]

I bought my Dad a 69 International with a 304 V8 and 4 speed back in the 80's my brother fixed a dropped lifter and the thing ran for years

[@TylersNeighborhoodGarage]

If it's a 727 makes sure you check it in NEUTRAL with the engine running. It will show fuller in Park than it actually is because of how the fluid is routed from the pump in the park position.

[@gregpallett1839]

What a great truck. I’d love something like it, talk about character and personality. Also love your Wolfsburg shirt 👍👍

[@roygunter3244]

In the mid 70s I worked for a company that had Travelall with a 345 and a 1/2 ton with a 400. Both of them were powerful and long lasting but both of them were really thirsty, I mean really thirsty. I was working 100 miles away in about 1990 when I looked up to see the 1974, which the company had sold with over 100k on it in about 1980 going down the street. It had the shop logo on it still and although it had dents all over it I recognized it. That truck had torque that was phenomenal but it had two gas tanks for a reason

Could have at least added some zinc additive, if you want that cam to last long, also some 10w40 or something instead of the 30

I'm glad you showed the carb rebuild- wish you had showed just a little more of it because I just got my step-dad old ford truck and it needs a carb rebuild or replace so I found that part super informative 👍- i really enjoy the videos of these cars and trucks being brought back from the dead

My Father had four different IH trucks two travelalls and two scout travelers Travelalls we're an 1110 and 1210 With 392 V8 and the Chrysler 727 Tork flight transmission Also had one in his old Dodge van that the hotrodders kept wanting to buy. Paid for the 1210 by selling the PTO wench Both could pull like a 🚜 tractor But the 1110 was actually better because of the lighter suspension let the truck squat down when pulling

[@rogercamp6071]

Unless that's been swapped at some time it should have a Borg Warner automatic in it, not saying it's not a 727 but probably not the original transmission that came with the truck.

[@BudgetBuildz]

You’re very correct! Shortly after finishing up the video, figured out these pre ‘71 trucks have the ole BW...time for a swap 😅 looking at it a little closer instantly knew it wasn’t a 727 🤷🏼‍♂️ learning as I go lol

Love it. Since you are planning to keep it, fix the gearbox, light tint on those windows for hot days, slight paint refurb job with your logo on it. Nice exhaust and tidy up the suspension to make it a great work machine for moving things. Plus with your logo it will be a good example of your work as an advertisement :P

I bought a 1968 1200C 4x4 that had been sitting in the woods for 30 years. It was an old fire department brush truck. Had 29K on the clock. 304 cubic inch that was stuck from sitting. Doused the cylinders with penetrating oil. Let sit for a week, then some more oil. Put 4 gallons of oil in, drained it. Then she broke free. Plugs , wires, rotor, cap , and points. Hooked up the boat tank and within a minute she was idling like a new truck! I really like those old trucks

[@380.motorsports]

Love the truck and the video of getting it running. Just a comment however that you don’t need to stop talking every time a car goes by on the road next to where you’re working. We can hear your voice over the road noise. Most of us watching are aware you are out working in real life situations not a sound stage. It may sound loud to you but if you are close enough to the mic or using a wireless mic the background noise does not over power your speaking. Just keep talking and forget its there. So many You Tubers make this same mistake and produce a video full of stops and starts.

[@cuba8766]

you guys r great love all ur videos that i had seeing.by the way do you still have the f-150 rust looking truck i like that the most they all great n you have a good eyes for classic i own a 52 chevy style line great car 2 doors im working on it,anywayplease let me know if u still have the f-150 n with all ur respect,is it for sale?tks

[@kennethsouthard6042]

I remember a guy that bought one of these IH trucks back in 84. It needed a brake job and parts were not available any more then. I believe that they actually had to modify Chevy brakes to fit the truck.

Always check the starter for being loose, most people don’t have the correct tools to tighten the starter correctly. I’ve found many loose starters that damage the flex plate and most of the time you can just take a file and knock the burrs off the teeth from a loose starter.

[@alexinnewwest1860]

Awesome! Love to see an International build.! Everyone has done chevys and fords The 727 is a really simple transmission. You should have no problems building it yourself

[@rogercamp6071]

Since that's a '69 it should have a Borg Warner automatic transmission,IH didn't start using 727 transmission until around '72 or '73, the '73 that I owned in the middle nineties had one of them

[@alexinnewwest1860]

Ahhhh yea your so right. I forgot about the BW, way back I had a 70 scout the BW auto, Well maybe this pickup just needs a filter and band adjustment

[@mikeobrien3744]

I have done a lot of 727 and 904 trans. It is worth the time to take out the valve body and see if the valves are gummed up from sitting. Easy to put in a shift kit at the same time. I have saved a lot of them with that trick.

[@clarenceswope3026]

I see you've got the lovely split rims LOL hahaha nobody liked them and a lot of places will not work on them but they got the job done they were very deadly Many years ago I was a little kid at the time dad had a international travel all and it had twin fuel tanks on the front fenders I don't know the year but every last international I have seen had the fuel tank up front to me it don't make sense because Ford Chevy Dodge Datsun Toyota all of them always had the fuel tank anywhere else except for the front fenders could you enlighten me on that one

[@justinstearns9723]

The tanks sit under the cab, and usually the pickups had a filler neck on the back of the cab, like the trucks that had the tanks in the cab. The ones on the fender were usually auxiliary tanks. My 73 travelall has a 19 gallon main tank on the drivers side rear, and a 16 gallon auxiliary with the filler on the passenger side front fender. The auxiliary tank sits under the passenger side floor. Those rims are probably split ring rims, not quite as dangerous as the true split rims, but still touchy.

[@morgansword]

Those are hard to kill rigs and the 345 engine being the best one of all, that 392 was plagued with issues from the thermostat housing to crank problems. I have probably built a thousand engines through my shop and it was the only engine to ever give me grief. I would go with a standard transmission rather than go back with a automatic. There are other automatic trans besides the 727 torque flight transmission and had a few with hydromatics. You can raise holly hell with one of those and still get home and they run cooler without the "special dodge" fluid that kept them going. I do guess you knew that tho right, dodge takes its own fluid and will die shortly if you even mix it as for some reason it balls stuff up and leaves the bands in the pan.

[@justinstearns9723]

I’ve heard of some cooling issues with 392s, but never crank issues. Cam bearings are the main weak point on all SV engines, 266, 304, 345, and 392. As far as I’m aware of no IH ever used a Hydramatic transmission. Prior to using the 727 starting in about 1973, they all had Borg Warner automatics.

[@jonathansparks7558]

In a perfect world, I'd win that swapped Intl. Scout, & trade you for the old school pickup - I've owned MoPars, GM, even a handful of Fords (Mistakes exc. for the '70 Van), so a real International would be fun. Guess I'll have to love it from afar. I hope you go for the home rebuild on the trans - if the case isn't porous or otherwise damaged, a kit should make it right as rain. Then you could take a look at the brakes - I think the RF one either drags or locks up before the other 3.

I had a 74 200 4x4 for 23 years. It was a 392 4 speed and ran like a Swiss watch. It got 10 mpg all day long, loaded or not. It was solid as a rock and absolutely beat you to death. I would suggest replacing the transmission with a 4 speed OD unit for better mileage and lower rpm at highway speeds. If budget allows a fuel injection change over would make it modern daily driver. Keep up the good work.
