    In our “suburban” CT town, the Travelall was the short bus of the late 60’s-70’s, getting the special ed kids to & from school.

    Hey Steve- new subs I hope you are on the road to recovery soon. I remover one if these when I was a kid back in the late 60’s in upstate NY the one my dad would drive sometime was about as base as it gets/ absolutely no frills , road like a truck, loud inside ( no insulation whatsoever) - it had a column shift manual ,an aftermarket AM radio installed on the underside of the roof. Same color scheme even.... it was used at a summer camp and sat all winter under snow and ice. Put a charge in the battery, a little gas down the carb ,turn the key and it would always start . I loved the old jeep they had better but the IH was a runner....

    Back in 1975, when home on leave from the Navy, I bought one of these. I mean, it was a twin to this one. The small V8 and 3 speed with overdrive. Only no trailer towing or A/C., but it had the dual gas tank set up. It was bronze with a white top. Drove it from Wisconsin to Virginia. I let a Navy "buddy" drive it and he totaled it into a concrete bridge abutment. Sad ending.

    The line setting ticket is essential for parts ordering, as IH used a lot of outside vendors to supply components.

Finally talked to a I H mechanic and he told us to get one from a I H dealer and take the serial number with us. That fixed the problem. Can not tell you how frustrating those clutch changes were lying on our backs in winter.

    Amazing that all the glass on this Travelall is still in tact. Those rear quarter windows are really tough to come by. One correction on engine sizes. The smallest IHC V8 was a 266 not a 288. IHC SV (small V8) could be had in 266, 304, 345 or 392. These SVs are not small by big 3 standards though weighing in at around 750lbs and physically the size of a big block chevy.

    My dad's first pick up was a MassDOT IHC Crew Cab that was a mix of orange and rust (mostly rust)- sold it to someone to special order a '81 GMC Crew Cab with a 6.2 diesel. Neither my mom nor the buyer could figure out how to open the hood when the transfer took place, except for 4 year old me, who had watched my dad open the hood on that derelict to feed it oil daily for over a year. My mom knew she was in trouble from that point on...

    You didn't mention if that Travelall had the auxiliary gas tank that had the filler just behind the right front tire, mounted low in the fender. I used to see gas stains from gas sloshing out. I had to work on a few IH V8s back in the day, and they were... interesting. The engine itself looked like a poly 318, but the front mount distributor proved that it wasn't. The dist cap and rotor looked just like a Ford or Mopar cap/rotor, but they were just different enough to not fit, so you HAD to use IH parts. Still, they were tough trucks.

  • @googleusergp
    @googleusergp Рік тому +10

    This was a re-do, so I'll repost what I did five months ago when it was featured back then:
    Don't forget that Jeep had the Wagoneer in the 1960s as well which would have been a direct competitor to this and the Suburban. Yes, the 1961 to 1968 models were called the "C and D Series" and were considered the third generation (1st was 1953 to 1957, 2nd was 1958-1960, 3rd was 1961 to 1968, 4th was 1969 to 1975.). As others stated, I think you meant to say "266 V8". Also as noted by others (and you a few times, lol), Raymond Loewy designed the logo.
    I would guess that the IHC under dash unit was rebadged for them by someone, say Mark IV or the likes of them. Benny from Classic Ride Society on You Tube would be one to weigh in on that, since he used to service them and collects them, featuring ones he finds on his channel. I comment frequently on that channel as well.
    Yup, with the partial VIN, we win: H for Springfield, OH assembly and the rest is the production sequence. The first six digits of the VIN denote the order code/invoice model. IHC serial numbers were a bit odd for a while, as were many makes until things got "standardized" in the 1970s. By 1981, the 17-digit VIN format that we have today was the norm. The original selling would have been IHC Corporation, 268 Park Street, West Springfield, MA 01089. This eventually became Keeley International and then Western Massachusetts Truck Center. Today this is Allegiance Truck Center who is a large conglomerate that has bought up a number of IHC/Navistar dealers in various places along the Northeast. As a unique aside, my local municipality will eventually use a building that was at one time a Navistar dealer and I have been there numerous times over the years when it was a Navistar dealer.
    That line ticket is gold to an IHC buff/restorer as that is the "Pontiac Historical Services' or "Marti" report for IHC. The information on it is invaluable. The original paint code is a two-tone code 6452 Turquoise/9120 Alpine White as shown on the bottom of the line set. Mr. Ray is I'm sure long passed away but that address still stands and the house has a long driveway, so perhaps Mr. Ray had a tractor or large snow blower to clear his driveway during the big MA snowstorms of the past. December 23, 1966 was a Friday, so Mr. Ray probably took his new purchase to perhaps get a Christmas tree or take it to Sunday Christmas mass as a shiny new vehicle. That weekend was anywhere between about 16 degrees and 30 degrees in Wilbraham, MA, but it doesn't appear that it was a white Christmas that year.
    I'm going to say the AC was a dealer install, but based on the build sheet/line set, the mirrors came on it when it left Springfield, OH where it was assembled. Navistar still operates a plant in Springfield, OH, and partners with GM to build their Silverado HD line there. Fontaine Modifications also has an assembly/modification plant there and I've been to it, most recently in November 2022. It is the main site for IHC/GM modifications, although, others are done there as we had a Ford F-550 modified there as the final stage manufacturer was also in OH for this project. IHC did have its own refrigeration unit and did make appliances for a time, but that business was sold to Whirlpool around the 1950s.

There was one for MA (although he could have moved over time) that showed a Clifford Ray being born in 1924 and dying in 2004 at 79 years old. That would have made him around 42 years old when he bought this truck new, which seems plausible.

    These were a step up in size to the Wagoneer. The Travelette shares some of the body work with the Travelall. When Wally Byam took his Airstream group to Africa the Internationals did not fair well. I would assume by 66 they had better axels. This would be really nice fixed up with an equally fixed up Airstream. I think this was owned by a fellow that spent quite a bit of time outdoors. Maybe the Berkshires and with the airconditioning for getting out of the city suburbs to the cooler mountains.
