    Very enjoyable video, like so many others you've made. I especially enjoy the IH and Diamond T trucks. My very first vehicle was a 1953 IH A-120. It was only 17 years old then, owned by a local doctor who had a little Hobbie farm. Then I bought a 1957 All Wheel Drive 3/4 ton, then another 1953 in about !980. Current have a 1955 that I have had since 1986 it had less than 60K miles when I bought. Great old trucks. So much fun to drive.
    I am really amazed that you can get these old girls to run, and they sound pretty good too.

I gave up after a few rebuilds and put a 12 volt battery just for the starter and when you pushed the dash button it would spin SWEET! She was good for 55 before the kingpins would start to ''Death wobble'' so bad you couldn't hold the lane! Solid and beefy....the strongest Truck I have ever seen!

    International was a price point truck. They competed for head-on with Dodge to win government contracts and often won. Many municipalities bought these trucks. They were often discarded with less-than-fatal problems.
    When I was growing up, we had a 1966 International Tavelall, a previously-owned state vehicle. It had a 304 Cu.In. engine and ran wonderfully. It got a little stuck in the mud and when we tried to get it out, the rear end broke. It was also a rust bucket.

      Imagine in the future when we're either older than dirt or dead and gone when they are trying to get cars from the current time line going, like 2020 Toyota corolla or a 2018 Buick Verano etc etc won't be easy at all and will all depend of the ecus aren't fried or sat underwater or some how got weathered in the inside, plus if rats chewed up the wiring it's a lost cause but will all depend on those ecus, lol crazy thought eh?!?

    Do you live in Arkansas ?The area you have your vehicles looks like a real nice place to live. I've noticed the state on many vehicles you work on. Well. on a sad note...You may have heard on the news last year that My beautiful niece Cassandra Carter from New Hampshire, was killed crossing a main road in Arkansas. My brother is totally devastated. We all are. She was dating a young man from Arkansas, and she went there with him to meet his family for Christmas. We don't know what happened, but she was hit by a truck and died on the side of the road. Some say the truck didn't have his lights on, some said she was running (from what) and crossed in front of the truck. No one knows. She was a sweetheart, My God child. Her poor boyfriend was in shock too. He wasn't with her at the time because they had an argument and she drove to a hotel. They called each other and made up over the phone. THEN her car would not start for some strange reason, and she started to walk back to where he was. Second person in my immediate family to get killed by a vehicle while walking. Life is so fragile. peace
