1957 International Harvester Other

BD 240

4 speed

Rare factory 57 International 4x4. I feel this is original mileage (4504) on the truck as all the under fender paint is still present, but not sure. This truck spent alot of time sitting and just being used in the Chiloquin Oregon winters. This truck still wears its factory Apache yellow paint. Truck was used as a snow plow for the Chiloquin Oregon school district back in the late 50's through the 60's. It still retains the snow plow hydraulic pump, reservoir and framework. I never had the blade or the hydraulic ram. 4x4 works, clutch is a little touchy (grabs). Truck is very sound, with minor surface rust other than at the very front of the bed where the floor meets the back panel. This is a typical rust through area on these trucks. Truck runs and drives and is currently licensed as a special parade and or show vehicle. The front tires are still the old bias-ply and need to be replaced. The rears are nice heavy duty 6 ply 235/83/16 radials which are very low miles. I recently replaced the master cylinder with a IH reman unit. The motor purrs like a sewing machine. The truck has been converted to 12volt using all IH parts including a NOS reman 12 volt wiper motor. For those in the know, these are rare as hens teeth. The truck comes with a vintage bull horn as well as the factory horn. There is a crack in the windshield on the drivers side. The truck has the optional factory inside rear view mirror. The truck still retains 2 of the large S-120 chrome hubcaps. These too are very hard to come by. I have a clear Oregon title on the truck.
