First thing first. No title. Bill of sale only. eBay needs an Other for the title selection. Second if you are looking at this then you know how desirable these trucks are. And nearly impossible to find. RARE 1947 International Metro Shorty Van. I bought this truck for a future rat rod build that never happened. Family and Health issues is the only reason for selling. My loss is your gain. Truck has what looks to be complete a flat head 6 with transmission, driveline, and rear end. The condition of these items is unknown as they were of no importance to me. But if you are going to go back original they are still in the van. The interior is mostly complete except I've notice the instrument cluster and seat is not there. the rear interior floor was a piece of plywood. This is the perfect candidate for a S10 body/frame swap. The truck is only 13 feet in total length from front to back. I've own it for several years. California truck. Great patina and it screams mean. Over the years I've entertained ideas such as a Drag bus. Hot Rod School Bus. Mystery Machine. And TIKI Van to name a few. The sky and the wallet is the limit. These are becoming more and more popular for drawing people and clientele to your place of business. Dare to be different and purchase this truck for your next project. Please understand that this truck is 70 years old and it will pretty much need a complete restoration. So I'm selling it As-is Where-is. $500 non-refundable deposit due within 24 hours of auction end. I will only accept Cash, Money Order, or PayPal for this transaction. No bank or wire transfers. No exceptions. I will help in anyway possible to work with YOUR shipping company. Vehicle can remain on my property for up to 15 days to help aid in your shipping or pickup. Only 3 tires will hold air because the rear passenger tire has come off the rim. I do not have the tools to take it off to fix/repair. These tires are really narrow and tall. So a rollback or trailer with winch will be the best process of loading. Pleas look at all pictures included as they represent the truck for what it is. I've done my best to be honest and upfront with everything that I know about this truck. Vehicle must be paid for in full within 7 days of auction ending and cannot leave my possession until paid for. I have this truck listed for sale locally and reserve the right to end the auction if it sells out right before the auction ends. Any questions just ask. Good luck. God Bless. Buy it now and secure this rare step van. .
