HELLO FRIENDS, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR TAKING A FEW MOMENTS TO HAVE A LOOK AT OUR RARE ORIGINAL, PARTIALLY RESTORED 1951 INTERNATIONAL HARVESTER PICK-UP TRUCK IN GOOD CONDITION AND READY TO DRIVE! THIS TRUCK IS ALL ORIGINAL AND STOCK WITH ITS ORIGINAL AND VERY STRONG SILVER DIAMOND 220 STRAIGHT SIX CYLINDER ENGINE AND THREE SPEED [4 WITH REVERSE] COLUMN SHIFT TRANSMISSION. THIS TRUCK IS A ONE/TWO OWNER FROM A SMALL FARM TOWN IN TENNESSEE AND IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION FOR ITS AGE WITH A STRONG, CLEAN ENGINE AND DRIVETRAIN AND THE BODY IS IN VERY NICE CONDITION AS WELL WITH GOOD, SOLID HEAVY METAL AND IT HAD ONLY VERY MINOR BODYWORK DONE FOR A VEHICLE OF THIS AGE. THIS EARLY 1951 TRUCK IS DONE IN A LOVELY INTERNATIONAL HARVESTER TAN / BEIGE ENAMEL PAINT WITH WHITE TRIM. THIS IS A GOOD SOLID TRUCK ALL AROUND TO BE OVER 60 YEARS OLD AND IT WILL MAKE SOMEONE A VERY NICE PIECE OF AMERICAN HISTORY. THE PICKUP RUNS GREAT AND HAS JUST HAD THE CARBURETOR REBUILT, NEW PLUGS, PLUG WIRES, NEW 6 VOLT BATTERY, BRAND NEW FUEL PUMP AND FUEL LINES,REBUILT MASTER CYLINDER, NEW [BRAKE] WHEEL CYLINDERS, AND TOO MANY OTHER THINGS TO LIST. THIS IS NOT A $30,000 RESTORE, HOWEVER IT IS A VERY NICE [GARAGE RESTORE] THAT MOST ANYONE WILL BE ABLE TO AFFORD, NOT JUST THE MILLIONAIRE COLLECTOR, SO BID TO WIN. THIS 1951 HAS ITS ORIGINAL ALL MATCHING NUMBERS FRAME,ENGINE,TRANSMISSION,ETC. AND HAS A CLEAR KENTUCKY TITLE READY TO TRANSFER. THIS EARLY IHC PICKUP STARTS RIGHT UP EVERYTIME YOU TURN THE KEY AND WOULD MAKE A SUPERB GROCERY GETTER OR TRUCK SHOW TRAVELER. THE TRUCK IS NOT IN SHOW CONDITION NOW BUT IT COULD BE FAIRLY EASILY IF YOU SHOULD CHOOSE TO GO THAT ROUTE, BUT IT IS VERY NICE JUST AS IT IS AND IT CERTAINLY TURNS EVERY HEAD IN TOWN WHEN YOU DRIVE BY!! THE TRUCK HAS ITS ORIGINAL 16" WHEELS, HUBS, AND TUBED TIRES SO IF YOU ARE PLANNING ON DRIVING IT DAILY YOU MAY WANT A NEW SET OF TIRES ANYWAY BECAUSE THESE DO SHOW ALOT OF WEATHER CHECKING. THE ORIGINAL SILVER DIAMOND ENGINE RUNS VERY STRONG AND DON'T SMOKE OR LEAK OIL. THE RADIATOR IS SOLID AND LEAK FREE, AND THE CLUTCH AND TRANSMISSION ARE STRONG. THIS IS NOT LIKE MOST OF THE OLD WORN OUT LATE 40'S AND EARLY 50'S TRUCKS THAT YOU NORMALLY SEE HERE ON EBAY. THIS IS A NICE OLD TRUCK THAT WILL LAST FOR DECADES TO COME. WE HAVE CHANGED ALL OF THE FLUIDS INCLUDING ENGINE OIL, TRANSMISSION OIL, DIFFERENTIAL OIL,ANTIFREEZE,ETC. AND IT IS READY TO GO. THE TRUCK WAS JUST PAINTED A FEW MONTHS AGO BUT IT IS CERTAINLY NOT SHOW QUALITY, BUT VERY NICE NONE THE LESS FOR A 60 YEAR OLD TRUCK. THE GLASS IS ALL THE ORIGINAL DOUBLE PANE AND SHOWS NORMAL WEAR AND THE DRIVERS DOOR HAS A CRACK AND THE WINDSHIELD HAS A SMALL ROCK CRACK AND SOME HAZING AS ANY 60 YEAR OLD GLASS DOES. THIS IS PURELY VISUAL AND HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH FUNCTIONALITY BUT WE JUST WANTED TO MENTION IT SO THERE WILL BE NO SURPRIZES. THE TRUCK IS LOCATED IN WESTERN KENTUCKY AND WE WILL GLADLY SHOW IT BY APPOINTMENT TO ANYONE THAT IS INTERESTED SO PLEASE COME AND LOOK AT IT IF AT ALL POSSIBLE BEFORE YOU BID AS THIS IS A 60 YEAR OLD VEHICLE WITH ALL THE IMPERFETIONS THAT COME WITH AGE. WE ARE GOING TO LET THE TRUCK GO FOR A FRACTION OF ITS ACTUAL VALUE SO BID TO WIN IT! IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE FEEL FREE TO ASK THEM BEFORE PLACING YOUR BIDS AND PLEASE ONLY BID IF YOU HAVE 100% INTENTIONS OF PAYING. WE WILL BE GLAD TO HOLD THE TRUCK FOR YOU FOR AS LONG AS YOU NEED AS LONG AS THE TRUCK IS PAID FOR IN FULL WITHIN SEVEN [7] DAYS OF THE AUCTIONS END.THANKS SO MUCH FOR LOOKING AND GOOD LUCK!On Sep-28-11 at 06:52:22 PDT, seller added the following information: WE JUST WANTED TO ADD THAT THE FLOORS ARE SOLID IN THIS TRUCK. WE ALSO JUST INSTALLED BLACK CARPET IN THE CAB AND NEW MATCHING FLOOR MATS. THE BENCH SEAT IS THE ORIGINAL AND NEEDS TO BE RE-UPHOLSTERED TO BE CORRECT, HOWEVER WE HAVE A MAKESHIFT SEAT COVER ON IT NOW THAT LOOKS AND WORKS JUST FINE. ALL OF THE DASH GUAGES ARE ORIGINAL AND WORK JUST FINE, EVEN THE VACUUM OPERATED ORIGINAL WINDSHIELD WIPERS WORK GOOD! THE UNDERCARRIAGE OF THE TRUCK LOOKS GOOD WITH ONLY NORMAL SURFACE RUST AND NO STRUCTURAL DAMAGE AT ALL. EVEN THE BED FLOOR IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION, WHICH IS VERY RARE FOR A 60 YEAR OLD PICKUP TRUCK. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO ASK ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU MAY HAVE BECAUSE I AM SURE THERE ARE THINGS THAT WE HAVE FORGOTTEN TO MENTION. WE HAVE THE RESERVE SET AT WHAT WE CONSIDER A VERY REASONABLE PRICE FOR WHAT YOUR GETTING AND MUCH LESS THAN MANY THAT WE HAVE SEEN IN SIMILAR CONDITION SELL FOR SO BID WITH CONFIDENCE. THESE EARLY INTERNATIONALS ARE MUCH RARER THAN THE CHEVROLETS AND FORDS OF THE SAME PERIOD AND THEY APPRECIATE IN VALUE EVERY YEAR SO IT WOULD BE A GOOD INVESTMENT AS WELL AS A VERY NICE ANTIQUE PIECE OF AMERICAN HISTORY, AS THIS TRUCK WAS MADE IN THE USA!!! THANKS AGAIN AND GOOD LUCK!
