1954 International half-ton pickup truck. Rare one year only R100 model which is very similar to the more common R110 but with a few upgrades (see Wikipedia exerpt below). Truck is in excellent condition and has become my daily driver for the past few months. All original metal. Amateur restoration over the past two years including new paint, gauges, seat cover, suspension, wiring, etc. Original straight six 220 engine and 3-speed on the column. 4 new tires. Windshield does have a chip, and one of the rear windows has 2 cracks as well. It is also missing the rear bumper. The truck comes with a copy of the "1954 International R100/R102 Motor Truck Operators Manual." Please call 309-453-9393 with any questions. Thanks for looking! Wikipedia For 1954, IHC introduced the new R-100, which looked exactly as the R-110, but cost US$ 60 less, and carried some improvements. including a bit more horsepower, improved gear ratios, larger brakes, more flexible springs. With a 4,200 lbs GVW (4,600 lbs on R-102) riding a 115 in wheelbase, the power came from a Silver Diamond 220 cid (3.6L), in-line 6-cylinder engine with overhead valves, driving a 3-speed transmission and a semi-floating rear axle. By mid '54 it could also be had with an overdrive transmission which provided a 30% reduction in engine speed at 60 miles per hour, or with a torque converter fully automatic transmission (basically a GM sourced 3-speed Hydramatic). Power steering also became an option. Tire size was 6.00x16 6 ply.
