Price: US $999.00

Description:

Hello!!
This auction is for my completely awesome 1969 International Harvester 1200D truck. I do not really want to sell this one, but I am moving soon to a home with less space and need to clear up some space. I am the second owner of this truck, the first was a construction company in northern Iowa. It sat for quite a few years in Des Moines IA, but after a small amount of tinkering I drove it to my home in Stuart, about a 40 mile trip with no problems at all. If it sits for a while it needs some starting fluid to get started and is very cold blooded, but once warmed up it runs out nicely. It is an old work truck though, so do not expect Cadillac refinement!
These Internationals are very strongly built, and my intention was to put a flatbed on this one and clean up the body a bit. As the pictures show, the body on this one is not all rusted to pieces, but does need some work. The floorpans are solid though, I will see if I can get some pictures of them and add to the auction. The Service Box on it is a bit beat, I was going to scrap it, but it could be used/brought back.
The truck is a V8 (pretty sure it is a 345, but might be a 392) and has an automatic transmission. The transmission shifts fine, and the rear end does not make any bad noises when going down the road. The brakes will need work, sometimes when I start it I get a 'brake failure' light, but the brakes do work. I think it might be a vacuum issue but have not looked into it too far as I have had the vehicle in storage. The dash pad is good, but not perfect and the truck does still retain it's original International Harvester fire extinguisher, which is often missing. (prob worth a bit by itself!)
This is being sold as-is as a project. If you have any other questions please let me know.
Thanks!
