THIS IS A 1977 INTERNATIONAL LOADSTAR 1600THE PREVIOUS OWNER TURNED IT INTO A LOG TRUCKIT ORIGINALLY CARRIED A 14' ALUMINUM BOX.IT IS A V8 MODEL BUT I HAVE NO CLUE AS TO WHAT THE SIZE.THE TRUCK AND PTO BOTH RUN GOOD. I HAVE NO IDEA WHATTHE POWER OF THE PTO OR THE WEIGHT CAPACITY OF THE ARM IS THERE ARE NO VISIBLE OUTER MARKINGS ON THE PTO ITSELF.EVERYTHING WAS WORKING WITH THIS TRUCK WHEN IT WAS PARKED ABOUT A YEAR AGO BUT WHEN WE STARTED IT TO MOVE IT FOR THE PICTURES THE BRAKES DIDN'T WORK. THE MASTER CYLNDER IS BADLY RUSTED AND THE BLEEDER VALVE IS STRIPPED...I IMAGINE THAT WOULD BE THE PLACE TO START DIAGNOSING THE PROBLEM. I HOWEVER DO NOT WANT TO DO THAT WORK SO THE TRUCK IS BEING SOLD AS IS WITHOUT WORKING BRAKES. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FEEL FREE TO SEND ME A MESSAGE AND I WILL DO MY BEST TO GET YOU THE ANSWERTHANKS AND HAPPY BIDDING! (UPDATE)THE ISSUE WITH THE BREAKS IS BELIEVED TO BE AIR IN THE LINETHE BLEEDER VALVE ON THE MASTER CYLINDER WAS RUSTED STUCK AND STRIPPED OFF. AS FAR AS RUST ON THE EXTERIOR THERE IS NEXT TO NONE THERE MAYHAVE BEEN A BONDO PATCH ON THE BOTTOM OF ONE OF THE DOORS BUTTHATS ABOUT IT...NOTHING LARGER THAN A NICKEL I'D SAY. THIS MOTOR HAS A GOOD DEAL OF POWER ITS A "STRONG TRUCK"THERE ONLY BIT OF SMOKE MAY BE FROM IT BEING A LITTLE TOO RICHTHERE HASN'T BEEN ANY OIL OR WATER SMOKE.
