Seabee Museum, located at Port Hueneme, CA has a display on the Marston Matting. These interlocking panels were used in WW2, Korea and Vietnam in order to quickly build landing fields and helicopter pads.
PS - Previous owner was a hell of a welder to fabricate the trucks flatbed area. Nice detail re rounded fender area.
U can make a rubber/plastic sign with magnet with your logo on. Just like a big fridgemagnet then u save the original pinstriping ....Great Truck, I envy U
greetings from Norway
Someone is getting louder and coming outta there shell!! Your an International Nerd!!😄
On your loadstar ramp truck instead of removing the the hand painted name you can get a magnetic logo to put over the top. Those magnetic stickers work pretty good from what I've seen. And it'll keep the original stuff on the truck like you'd like nice looking truck.
Saw this about a month ago on Casey LaDelle's channel! I grew up in Ky driving old IH farm trucks. This one is VERY nice!!!
You should find more of the deck plate an make a trailer to match that would look awesome
Awesome international strong running trucks 👍👍.
When i saw this truck for sale I knew someone was gonna be stoked, glad it went to a good home! I just finished my loadstar/DT360 build and you are right about the attention they get, LOTS!! Maybe we could meet the trucks up at a show one day. Cheers
That would be great Dale. Send us an email.

Save Coito’s logo on doors. Put your shop logo on the toolbox doors. Coito’s logo is part of the truck’s history. A matching deck on trailer would look great.
My second comment following the first will tell you the difference in mine and yours... I want to add that we landed the B52 planes on that material in vietnam. I had the DT466 engine, ten speed with a air shift four speed brownie.. and tandem axles on the back. It would roll at 85 mph all day long at 2000 rpms. A twenty four foot steel bed with live tail spool and a pto driven winch under the tilt bed. Used to haul containers and trash bins. The winch went through a block in the back and then back to the front where it was now on the top of the deck and pulled what ever you needed to load just idling along. Great set up, I hauled some of my K.W. 100's on it. air brakes and air passenger window with heated mirrors, you could adjust the passenger mirror from the drivers seat an had the window in the lower passenger door
Absolutely beautiful truck! In Vietnam in 1967 we called that PSP (perforated steel plate) it was used for airstrips, bridge decking, road through soft soil areas, etc. At LZ Hammond we had a 3000ft. PSP runway that was built over a rise, a C-130 couldn't be seen from one end when it touched down on the other end. They would come roaring over the hill with the props in reverse and then had to back up to the staging area because the strip was too narrow for them to turn around. Looking forward to your planned refinements of this truck!
That's amazing thank you for sharing !
Awesome truck
Your decking is called "Marston Mat" or pierced steel planking. It was delvoped as a temporary, expedient landing surface and came in 120" x 15" planks. There will be 87 holes in each planks. Oh by the way, love your channel as I am a big IH fan as well! From my 1st vehicle, 67 Scout 800 to my 97 4700 flatbed, with a mid 70s Cub Lowboy 154 thrown in for good measure 😀
In the 70's international had a 549 ci that had alot of torque I drove a tandem dump Loadstar with the 549 and a 5X3 transmission a few times
I thank Casey of finding your channel!!! Been European, ( Greek!! ) International as a brand, is almost none existant but still I appreciate your content!!
Thank you really appreciate it 🙏
It’s like watching a kid on Christmas they got the best present ever
So true 👍
I love the that truck 🙂
I get a kick out of your enthusiasm about what you do Ben. You could have a magnetic sign to cover the painted doors when you need to.
That a long ride on a truck you got from California.. definitely made it a long ride going 55mph...
I recommend putting your company name on that truck quick as it’s epic advertisement.
So Wise , Thank You. A fine idea for a deck. My main concern would be ground clearance in the back
I'd love to see this in action.
Now this was just plumb INTERESTING. Wow!!!! Thank you for detailed trip. Wow!!!!
Put the winch in the beaver tail and run the cable forwards and back round a removable shackle ,you could then put a cover over the winch to keep the clean look.
Wonderful video. Thank You for sharing. Until Your next video. Stay safe
That truck has a great story with it and is in beautiful shape!
I used to be a dealer for loadstar. You need to open the vent about an inch and your heater and defroster will work a lot better
Such a great old truck Ben!! And in such pristine condition -- you definitely scored!!!
Safe travels, friend...😍
I found a A140 4x4 for 4500 in Edmonton randomly like 3 mins ago, only international I've ever seen for sale that isn't jacked to shit for Sema or completely rotted.
Edit: 1980 turbo diesel scout 4x4 as well
Ceres is pronounced like series! :)
Gotta get out there and visit you one of these days and check out your cool trucks. Personally I’d keep the original lettering on the truck just for the history of it all. Happy to see you doing big things Ben!
Thanks Brad, looking forward to that visit
Great truck just a thought what if you mount the winch at the back between the ramps an run a snatch block at the front that way gives you more pull power an more angles at the back with out dragging the rope over the tray
I had the same thought. It would need a roller on the back end of the level part of the deck, but it should have that also if the winch is up front. Especially if you're using synthetic rope.
It might make one more step in a recovery, but could be very useful for any angled recovery, when you can't get directly lined up.
Rescued ? Or stole it more like it lol great truck either way
Beautiful truck but it would sweet with a turbo and a gear change. Mileage would be even better but I bet it would be a chore to build the turbo setup. I couldn't tolerate the 55mph
You mentioned the engine was turning 2300 rpm at 55 mph if I heard you right. Have you consider swapping a transmission with more gears so you can run interstate speeds. And a windshield washer setup would be helpful too.
I had an 1850b Cargostar that had the 3208 years ago that was used as a support truck for a drill rig so it had around a 20' flatbed and a drop axle. I bought thinking I would at least get it road legal. it ran great but it sat for 15-20 years before I ended up with it and the windows were blown out not to mention the tires on the dayton rims.
I have found that the big trips like with family and friends are as good as the old vehicles you can find on the trips.
Forgot to tell which point the heater valve was turned on....
Love that truck.
It is only a year younger than me and I love 70s stuff 😊
Hey Ben!! Just a suggestion ,, When you mount the winch ,, instead of putting it behind the front head board ,,mount it on the 1st level plate on the rear at the beginning of the ramps & run it to the front with a ""Snatch block "" so you can run closer to the head board !! Great looking ""OL"" IH ( Corn Binder ) !! HAHA
My very first "CORN BINDER" was a "FARM- ALL "A" Offset Tractor, then a 49 1 Ton Flat Bed, then a 52 3/4 ton pickup, then a 72 1010 pickup, then A 62 Scout 80, then a 65 Scout 800, then a 70 Scout 800 B, then a 72 Scout II, Wish I still have them all. Keep it up. Love the "Corn Binders."
Lifer , I love it !
Ceres, CA is pronounced like a TV series.
I agree Ben, a hitch to pull a trailer would be a big bonus on a rescue mission. Thanks for sharing this and looking forward to seeing the next.. Keep up the good work 👏
Great To here the history of vehicles very cool. Can’t Wait to watch it in action bringing back other vintage trucks thanks for sharing.
Thanks for sharing the story of this truck with us. Looking forward to the new stories you make with it.
You need to make some magnets with your shop name on them for the doors
Awesome truck!! It could use an over/ under auxiliary trans.
Great video brother can't wait to see it in action. Love the dedication you have for these trucks and to bring them back to life. God bless you brother 🙏
I love the looks of that truck!!
Cool!
what a fabulous Cornbinder! love your care and passion for the International rigs! great channel!
Great story...looking forward to it coming to life for us on your channel.
Great mileage! 🙂👍 I've got an 8.2 detroit in my F700 rollback that gets the same mileage. Not much power but its reliable. LOVE that binder of yours! 😁👍 *I understand your passion for getting the opportunity to buy the truck! Most of us do. Keep at it*
Love following your channel I love the old stuff. Your excitement is epic
BEN, WAS YOUR STOMACH GROWLING THERE TOWARDS THE END? THOUGHT MAYBE YOU WERE THINKING OF ROCKY MOUNTAIN OYSTERS AT THE CATTLE COMPANY IN TOWN OR THEREABOUTS. I'LL KEEP MY EYES PEELED FOR SOME INTERNATIONALS FOR YOU.
You going to name it Butch
Or "The Kid". Last video, I was thinking Alonzo, for the Sundance Kid's real name, Harry Alonzo Longabaugh
"Pierced steel planking" known as "psp" not fun to hook together .
Only thing I see wrong with it, the flags are on the wrong sides. Otherwise, she’s sweeeeeet!
👍👊
Cool man. I’m afraid of having an old truck cause What happens when it breaks down? Are parts available?
Great story! Did you ever open the coolant valve to the heater?
You're like a little kid at Christmas.
Did that have Budd wheels when you got it
Had the wheels on it you see in the video. 22.5 alcoas
Like the name funny Look it up in Spanish
not all cali is hot lol
🤤 ρяσмσѕм
Sorry not my kind of show
