1960 Factory V8 INTERNATIONAL HARVESTER 4x4 Pick Up Work TRUCK Barn Find
This is a great truck, a New Mexico vehicle, and an awesome candidate for restoration or used as is. I have to say I intentionally left it as I found it, it is an interesting story. To insure barn find status I leave as found with dirt and all. The gentleman who previously owned this was an employee of our National Labs here in Albuquerque and has lab stickers. The truck was used as a work truck on this valley orchard. It was mechanically maintained but never cleaned and wintered under a tarp. A 4 wheel drive monster!
It is a classic farm truck the shifting is not the easiest but I drove it 20 miles in town no problem. The shifter is a bit loose and a little finesse is required as with most old vehicles. It runs strong and the dual exhaust blows any dirt on the ground up, great pressure. I was followed by a friend and they said there was no smoke on shifting or acceleration. Its a big heavy vehicle and takes a little effort to steer over power steering. I guess I am saying this is not a mamby pamby truck. Odometer is 150000 plus.
The metal is heavy and there is a rust line as seen on the bed and its heavy as seen. There is a bed liner of some sort. It has a cool spot light and a CRAZY train horn. I have not tested the 4 wheel capability the family though it worked, but no promises. The emergency brake holds. The underside side Frame and Exhaust are solid, not much rust here in New Mexico unless it is sitting water as seen in the bed. Heavy duty suspension, with tow hitch receptacle with mud flaps. The carb looks brand new and possibly was very recently replaced. The lights are currently working. Has crank arm as seen for lifting with hook and spare on the front bumper with Rhino grill.
