1969 International Harvester 4x4 Pickup

Description

The places you can go and the things you can do mean this 1969 International Harvester 4x4 Pickup is ready for far more than just a cars & coffee outing. In fact, with everything from V8 power to a versatile flatbed, this classic truck is also a useful specialty tool.

This is exactly how you get both rarity and distinction wherever you go. After all, we see far fewer IH vehicles at car shows, and this is the kind of 4x4 that stands above the fray (literally). People will marvel at this kind of truck because it was usually purchased to be a lifelong workhorse. So many are often used up and long gone now, but this one is quite different. It looks like it has been given the right care to be ready for industrial duty today. The bed sides fold down for a true flatbed, and while the real wood is a nice classic touch, it's also a nice way to haul cargo. Plus, this has a headache rack, an auxiliary fuel tank, tow mirrors, and a proper trailer hitch. And that big steel front bumper even has provisions for a winch (it will at least need a new cable.) There are even some fun touches, like how the white roof, grille, and bumper against the blue give this a subtle two-tone. As a true classic, this has a very clean and complete appearance where you could invest in a respray and a few details to get a stunner. But we kind of like it the way it is now. Imperfect but sturdy gives this truck an instant credibility. So if you just opened your business yesterday, but parked this International out front, it would look like you've been around for generations.

Just like the exterior, the interior is attractive for its workman appeal. There's a good bench seat, clean steel door panels, and a rugged rubber floor. So go ahead and hop in with your steel-toe work boots on. You get a grippy three-spoke steering wheel, and beyond that is a full set of gauges. This includes an added tach in the center, which is particularly handy with the stick shift.

The engine bay continues this truck's hardy style. This is International's desirable 304 cubic-inch V8, and now it's even topped with a Holley four-barrel carburetor. It's a strong powerhouse, and the four-speed manual transmission has a low first gear to be perfect for everything from hauling loads to crawling up hills in this 4x4. And speaking of the four-wheel drive, you have a nice upgrade to ARB locking hubs. Plus, you have power steering, power brakes, front discs, and newer Falken WildPeak A/T tires for modern traction.

Complete with build receipts, this is an ideal total package for work or play. But what's really impressive is that something this unique is also so affordable. Call today!!!
