This is a 1988 International S1600 cab and chassis redone in 2015New black paint with pin-striping in 2015Hydraulic disc brake conversionFord F350 Bed6.9 Engine swap in 2017 (151k)No CDL Required I am selling my International S1600 SuperTruck. It starts easily, runs great, shifts good, and drives smooth. I have just installed a smooth running International 6.9 IDI diesel engine with 151k on it. Why a 6.9 IDI you ask? Easy, because there is no computer, no driver module, no maf sensors, no wire harnesses hidden beneath valve covers, you can reach down and touch any of the glow plugs (= easy to change), parts are cheap, engines are cheap, the injector fuel pressure can manually be adjusted, etc. If an EMP hit this truck, I could have it running in an hour. The engine was swapped by Kelley Automotive of Verdigris in 2017, when it also received all new engine gaskets and fuel rail o-rings. The engine has 151k, the odometer reads 321k, but that number is only good for the cab and chassis, as essentially all other components have been changed. (motor, axles, running gear, etc.) This engine will accept aftermarket turbos, and can be swapped to 7.3 if so desired. (The 6.9 is the same lower cast as a 7.3, so they swap easily and fit without mounting bracket modifications) However, this engine has no lack of power, and is faster than a typical non-turbo, and is coupled with a 5 speed Spicer transmission with Hi/Lo rear differential, so it can be driven like a 10 speed. (10 Speed Spicer configuration) Though it won't be winning any races, it will pull ANYTHING you put behind it, uphill from a standstill. Stacks, chrome bumpers, diamond plate running lights, Lund cab visor, custom paint and pinstriping, true dual stacks - It has more custom details than I can list, and it sits on very nice 22.5" Alcoa Aluminum wheels with like new tires all around. In-bed diamond plate tool box. The paint is NOT perfect, but looks very nice all around from about 10 feet. There are various small imperfections, including chips and scratches - but again, you have to be up close to really see them. This truck needs absolutely nothing to be a daily driver, go to work, or pull your toys across the continent. The AC is all there but needs work. This truck is the CENTER of attention anywhere it goes. Guys in trucks will purposely mess up traffic just to pull up next to me and ask questions about it. I have come out of stores or pubs to find people taking pictures with my truck on several occasions. It is a very unique rig, and is guaranteed to turn heads every time you drive it. The tags are up to date, and I have a clean, green, lien free, Oklahoma title - ready to go!On Sep-01-18 at 11:48:29 PDT, seller added the following information: ***Because I want the buyer to be perfectly happy with their purchase, I have looked over the truck for any small details that I could find, to add to the vehicle description. Though outlined above, I reiterate that the mileage of the engine is 151k, and the cab and chassis are 327k. The mileage may go up a little, as I drive it every weekend. Doesn't have any leaks, but the power steering pump weeps a little (does not drip), as is evident by a small amount of residue. May need a tiny shot of either when it has sat for a long period of time, but will start easily all day without another. All the exterior lights work, as do the wipers, blower motor, and dash lights. The windows have been converted to power windows. The passenger's side window rolls up and down, but sometimes needs a little help. The driver's side window motor is good, but is either stuck or needs rewired. Both wing windows function well and lock. All the glass is nice, but the windshield has a very tiny chip (about 3mm), but no cracks. It has been converted to power locks, but they need greased. Sometimes the power locks work, sometimes they stick. Despite various recent modifications and various newer components, it is still an older truck, and will be sold "as-is" without warrantee. This is a private sale - not through a dealership. Please understand that this truck is not air ride, and is set up to pull massive weight, so drives a little bumpy without a load in the back. Comes with a chrome drop hitch. Please don't let these little details discourage you, this is a very unique truck at a price you won't find again. It is affordable enough to purchase and make any mods you like, and still be well under the price tag of a typical SuperTruck. Also note that other SuperTrucks will also have various small imperfections that may not be disclosed with as much detail as I have given here. Thank you, and have a great day!
