International Harvester Other (1967)
for sale
Price: US $517.00
Price: US $517.00
I purchased this Travelall
with the idea of refitting the factory optional rear cargo doors to another
Travelall I have that has the standard tailgate with electric roll up rear
window. After having this vehicle shipped and taking delivery of it, I quickly
realized retro fitting cargo or ambulance style doors is a very difficult job, and not one that I have the skill level to accomplish. I also wanted the near
perfect, large, curved rear windows for replacements, as well as having the two
large capacities “saddle” fuel tanks boiled out and coated for use in the other
vehicle. None of the aforementioned was accomplished and this Travelall was
pushed to the back of the building. Now
I need the space it is taking up and it has to go. What actually was
accomplished was getting the motor to start and run with the aid of a freshly
rebuilt carburetor borrowed for this purpose from another vehicle, an electric
fuel pump, an auxiliary fuel source, and a fresh battery. These four items are
not included in the sale, however can easily and relatively inexpensively be
replicated. With the motor running the Travelall was moved a short distance to
determine that the clutch, which at present cannot be disengaged because the
hydraulic booster and slave cylinder need to be rebuilt, does not chatter or slip.
Likewise the brakes, which also work from the hydraulic booster, are at present
not operational.
The optional front
bench seat, rear seat (both included with the vehicle), and floor mats were
removed to expose the floor pan, which also shows off the beautiful, original
paint. There are areas of rust on the driver’s and passenger’s side where the
windshield, curving at this point, allowed water to drip in and accumulate
under the floor mats. An inherent problem that plagued most, if not all, Travelalls of this era. Another inherent problem is door alignment. Both of
these can be remedied relatively inexpensively taking the low tech route, for
example black silicon caulk to (temporarily) seal the windshield, which incidentally
has a hole in the glass. There is exterior rust on the body behind front and
rear fenders.
This was a fully
optioned vehicle with a 345 v8, four speed transmission, or it could even be a
five speed, also a factory option, which I have not determined, but maybe not.
Other options also included factory air conditioning, back up lights, frame
mounted trailer hitch, etc.
This is a 48 year old vehicle which is being sold
as is, where is, without any warranties or guarantees stated or implied, shipping is not included. Please look carefully at the pictures, ask questions, have funds available, bid to win. The vehicle is also being advertised locally
therefore this listing could be canceled in the event of a sale locally. A deposit of $500. via Pay Pal within 24 hours of winning bid. Payment in full within 3 days with personal check.
The year of vehicle
manufacture, 1967 Texas license plates included with a winning bid over $1, 800.
