Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE You are looking at a 1954 International R-132 1 Ton Dump. The truck is partially restored and was purchased a couple of years ago with the intent to complete. Odometer reads 53101, Unladen Weight = 3,000, GVWR = 11,000. Think that the mileage is relatively accurate but speedometer/odometer does not work. Engine, transmission, etc all appear to be original. The truck starts, runs and drives well. I believe the carburetor may need a re-build and choke is not connected. As you can see from the photographs the dump does work! I’ve only used the truck on my property. Circumstances have changed and I don’t know that I will ever finish it, so I am looking for someone with the passion to finish. I’ve looked at many on-line listings and have not found anything like it so can only conclude that it is very rare. The truck has been garage kept since purchase and I believe it was at least “barn kept” previously. According to the person I purchased it from, the battery was new and a new starter was put in 7-1-08. I was also told that the door bottoms were welded on, not pop riveted or puttied. I purchased and will include owner’s manual, parts list, etc. It appears that the cab was removed from the frame for restoration. When I purchased it none of the lights were working. Now all but the roof clearance, side clearance and turn signals are operational. It appears that those just need to be re-hooked. The back tires are all in good condition, front needs new ones, good shape but dry rotted and cracking, no front bumper, new used front windshield in it with rubber seal. I was told that the bed framing was reconstructed by a previous owner and it is in good shape. The bed floor is treated deck boarding There is no tailgate but the tailgate hardware is included. I have roof metal that the sun visors hook onto, have the gas pedal, extra hood bar that holds hood up, 1 sun visor (they only had one), the floor plate that covers the hole by the clutch and brake, have windshield wipers, the International chrome emblems for the front fenders, 2 heater or tunnel tubes, plate that goes around shifter that bolts on the floor inside, both door handles, both window cranks, 2 rubber pads for clutch and brake pedal, one door key lock (there was only 1 on the passenger side), running boards, but they are in rough condition and could be repaired or used for templates for new ones. A 1000 lb hoist and a class three hitch have been installed on the truck and are included. Truck is solid no rust holes, not rusted through anywhere, 1 little spot on hood needs finished and hood needs painted. The truck frame is very solid as well. Truck cab and grill were repainted but there are some scratches, etc. that can be seen in the photographs. Seat covering is worn through, but seat structure is in good shape. Two new rear windows and seals were installed however one has a small crack that occurred on installation. There is no weather stripping for around doors, hood or cowl vent but I’ve seen these items available on E-bay for reasonable prices, as well as the door panels, which are also missing. After purchase I found that the truck had a 12 volt battery but still had a 6 volt system. The 6 volt generator was not working, so I replaced it with a 12 volt alternator. I have and am including all of the 6 volt parts that were removed, so you can decide to complete the 12 volt conversion or revert to 6 volt. Also included are a couple of 12 volt windshield wiper motors and wiper arms so you can convert the stock vacuum to electric 12 volt if you desire. May be able to arrange shipping if desired. I would be glad to try and answer any other questions you might have. Happy bidding!!
