1948 INTERNATIONAL KB2 3/4 TON PANEL TRUCKVERY VERY RARE PANELTRUCK! In the world of classic Trucks, there’s lots of Chevy’s, Ford’s and a couple Dodge’s here and there, but very few 1940's International Panel's are left in the WORLD. Here is one up for auction. This is a very rare 1948 International KB2 3/4 ton panel. The KB2 series was only made for two years and was predominately used as farm trucks. This fabulous panel appears to be complete and un-restored, down to the original kerosene flair bottle under the dash. This panel is solid!! I don't know its complete history. However, in has been in the dry climate of Southern California for over 20 years. The body is near perfect with only a few areas of surface rust and a dime size rust hole in the bottom rear door. The rear door also has a small dent on thebottom of the door (not creased, so easy fix) and door still functions as it should. It has the original Green Diamond motor,gauges, seats and all of its glass. Including the windshield that still cranks out. It has all of its banging, however, they have been removed from the panel for safe keeping. It has the original steal rims including the international hub caps and spare tire. The gas tank and drive shaft have been removed and placed inside the Panel. The engine spins freely by hand and turns over very slowly when trying to start it, appears as though it has a 12 volt starter on a 6 volt system. (And yes, I even have the original 6 volt starter). If you are a International collector or wanting a very rare awesome looking classic panel truck, this is a must have. The panel comes with a clear California title. I recently had an International expert look at the panel and he was amazed at its condition and wished he had the money to buy it. Was told this panel is easily valued at 15k in this condition...don't worry my reserve is not anywhere near that, so good luck and happy bidding. I reserve the right to end the auction early because vehicle is also for sale locally.
