The Model: While the International-Harvester Company could trace its heritage to a time well before the start of the 20th Century, their first “Auto Buggy High-Wheelers” didn’t hit the road until 1908. Just as their reputation for well-built and well-engineers farm equipment was known around the world, these truck garnered the same tales of rugged abilities. After WWII, International added a bit of design and flair to their commercial lines and found not only a strong market in rural areas, but also a growing market in the cities and towns. When the L-series was released in the early 1950s, it was a combination of good looks and durable performance for whatever job it was called on to perform.

The Car: This L110 Series ½-ton pickup has been treated to a full restoration that will qualify as “concours” quality wherever it is shown. Finished in a pleasing light green with black fenders, the box features the side-mounted spare tire, golden oak sideboards, and fresh wood for the bed of the box. The interior is appointed just as it would have been in 1952 and features a restored heater-defroster unit, as well as a comfortable vinyl covered bench seat. Under the hood, the “Silver Diamond Six" purrs to life and driving this truck is like stepping back in time. While the history of this truck has not been revealed we predict that awards and accolades for being one of the nicest Internationals are in its future.
