That has to be a really scarce truck, to say the least. Where would one find the engine parts to get it running again? :?:

I would think they would be available just like old Chevy, Dodge and Ford parts are still available. IH did make pickups just like the rest of them for years and contributed to the war effort with 1 1/2 ton and 2 1/2 ton trucks. Here is a link to a pic for a 1 1/2 ton cargo. Pretty sharp truck.

When a friend of mine redid his IHC 90% of the power train/ driveline parts he needed, were ordered over the counter at a local IHC Dealer
Some items were in stock but most were found at various IHC dealers nationwide. :)
Correct cargo bodies , especially on the East coast are far more difficult to locate however :cry:
