My uncle just sent my Grandpa's '67 International 1300 1-Ton to the scrapper a few weeks ago and this pops up on Ebay. Damn nice example.

Members of my family in recent years have thrown away a Model T Doodlebug, a Dodge Super Bee and an Indian Scout.
Kinfolk can make you cry sometimes.
Absolutely awesome truck. My office is in the old International Harvester building, built in 1927 for their regional office and showroom and parts warehouse. I think we should buy this as a promotional item. Park it in the lobby.
A few years before his death, my Grandpa, in a very stupid moment, sold his 62 international 3/4 ton 4x4 with PTO winch and camper special 9 ft bed to scrappers for $400. The truck handnt run in 20 years, but the engine was fresh and had been stored correctly. If I or most of the family for that matter had known he wanted it gone, I would have payed him far more than that, and it would be running around right now.
I still keep my eyes peeled for it.
Anybody know why the wheel on the spare is looks to be a dually style and offset when the wheels on the truck aren't?
In reply to bravenrace:
I'm not sure, that isn't even the correct Dualle wheel for the International 1-ton Dualle.

that's what caught my eye, too.. if he gets a flat, the tire's either gonna be way out or way in..
if he cut that corner, then what other corners got cut in the rest of the truck?
