1974 International Harvester Loadstar 1600

Description

1974 International Loadstar 1600 Grain Truck.
This truck was owned by the original owner who ordered this truck from 1974-2016 to the best of my knowledge. The truck I believe was stored indoors during that time. The truck has only 67,000 miles and is in exceptional shape. The truck has the 345 gas V8 engine and the top of line T-496 5 speed transmission. Nearly every option was thrown on this truck to practically turn it into a Loadstar 1800 by spec. I purchased this truck last September but have only used it a few times. I start it up once a month if I have not used it. Every thing works as it should except the AM radio. I have not used the small internal fuel tank, so I can not confirm that status. The dump is the high end scissors style and plenty strong. All tire tread in very good condition, one tire was replaced in 2016. This does not have air brakes so I think that no CDL is required to operate. There is a full tarp for the top of the bed, and the back has the 3 metal panels with grain chute, these will go with the truck as well, but currently have them off. See the build sheet listed in the photos to see all the options and the (GVWR) numbers.
