Abandoned 1954 International R120 Farm Truck! Parked for 27 years! Will it Run?!?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 19 сер 2024
- We got this 1954 International R120 pickup from a subscriber who said it "Ran when Parked" 27 years ago. It's got the inline 6 cylinder OHV engine and 4 speed manual transmission. Lets get it cleaned up and see if we can get it back to its former glory! If you're interested in purchasing the pickup I have bad news... It sold less than 12 hours after we posted this video to one of our subscribers! BUT, if you're interested in the 1953 Studebaker pickup, Jimmy would like $500 for it in the shown condition. Email us if you're interested in the Stude! Thanks for watching everyone!

I’m thinking that MSRP really stands for Mortske’s Starter Repair Palace.
That's awesome! Thanks!
@Mortske Repair , you know what that is going to do .... at Mortske's starter repair service we will gladly rebuild your starter so we don't lose the shop and so puddin can continue reviving, keeping his vehicles on the road and running for many more years to come.
Lol.
I owned a Ford truck in the late’ 90 ‘s with a 302 cu in with an inline 302/6 cylinder. Why Ford made it was beyond me.
@@SlyDellian Sorry my first comment was meant for someone else not you! Thanks for watching!
The reason the old internationals aren’t rusted out is the thickness of the sheet metal on the body. It’s hard to knock a dent in one with a framing hammer. They are like a tank. Brake drums are larger, clutches and flywheels are larger. They were built to last like a tractor. I’ve had 2 of them when I was younger. 71 now. They are good trucks. 👍😀👉🇺🇸
They were built like tanks compared to competitors!
Yeah they were. In the late 70's early 80's I could go to the IH dealer that sold big rigs and farm equipment. I could find everything I needed there to maintain and repair it.
@@olgriz485 And buy a refrigerator there as well!
@@MortskeRepair lol. Brother the two of us could talk for hours.
Welding "burn thru on metal this thick ? never a burn thru.....
My dad bought me one of these for my first car in the mid ‘80’s. It ran on two cylinders none of the electrical system worked so I had to only park on a hill to get it started and someone had painted it with a brush. Loved that truck😆
@@pookysdad4884 Au contraire, mon ami: that truck built the boy's character! Father knows best.
Morning Duff!
Morning Mortske!
So Much For Getting Anything Done The Next Hour
I learned to drive in one of these. I think it was 265 ci. It had a main bearing between each cylinder. It was so tough you could pull tree stumps in low gear. Once I bounced over railroad tracks and it started running rough. It would idle but missed when you step on the gas. Turned out the coil wire fell off and was arcing about 4 inches to make contact. Great memories.
Very cool!
Pity I am in UK. I would love that truck and put another engine in it.
Would benefit with another engine. For its age, its in very good condition. It has character.
Restored a 1955 R-112 and I love it. These are an interesting alternative if you aren't into the big 3 for a classic truck. Parts are hard to get though.
Trying to do my trumpet warm ups while watching the video is not working. Laughing way too much to play my long tones!!! Awesome!
I'm really not into taking old vehicles and turning them into some kind of hotrod. I would vote for restoring it to original or as close as reasonably possible. Great post. Thank you.
"The starter. I hate starters. Why did it have to be the starter?" - Mortske Repair.
He needs to have a local priest do an exorcism on one of those busted starters n chase that starter evil away 🤣🤣🤣
ran mine for a year without a starter, it push started so easy and getting a wrench on the starter bolts took 3 long extensions
when i was a kid,my neighbor who was a farmer had one that was basically a twin of this one.it was still going strong when i moved in the late 70's.so they had to be fairly strong to withstand over 20 years of farm truck use.
FINALLY a pressure wash video!!! Also, the bed floor is amazing considering the junk in there and being outside for decades. This one is a gem!
"We counted em yesterday"😂
That's that quick granma wit.... I love her already.
Definitely worth saving. I think it would even make a cool 4WD conversion. Put a Blazer frame under it.....lift kit, some Dana 60s. A GM crate motor. Boom!!
I like how your dog immediately made himself home in the truck, very content on the seat. When I was a kid, my neighbor was a hunter and had a Brittany Spaniel named Sparky. My God that Dog could run, great hunting dog! I really like this old IH pickup, these trucks were built to work. I live in Pennsylvania, and don’t see many of these anymore.
If ever a truck you worked on deserved to get back on the road... Body-wise, the BEST candidate I've seen you wrench on in a while! Glad she sold!
I had a 56 S-100 with a BD220 I swapped the rear end to '68 1 ton dana 60, with 1 1/2 ton rear springs
and 4 on the floor best truck ever loosening both hood latches allow easy removal of the hood.
Duff looks ruff!! Must of been out on a hot date last night!! Did you see how he took right to the old international? These international trucks helped build america. I love these trucks!! I don't know why alot of people didn't. Thanks for sharing!!
That thing has Puddin written all over it... a lot of potential there.
I will keep tuning in though you've got some good stuff and now I really like Duff...
My dad bought a 51 in 61 that had 10k miles on it . It was school bus yellow . Came off a farm in La. He later bought a new F100 ford and handed me the keys to a 16 year old being me . I could not tear it up . Memories ....
I really like those old internationals. Parts for them are such a pain. I would swap in a chevy inline 6 and make her my goin to town rig.
There isn't a chevy engine that could compare to the original 6. I've had three of them.
@@MaxNafeHorsemanship thats why you had three?
God I wish I was closer to you. I’d get this in a heartbeat
That Studabaker straight six is arguably the best internal combustion motor ever made. Toyota put an almost identical copy of it in their full-size Land Cruiser for many, many years, and you know how well those trucks lasted.
and they copied the chevy sixes!
Watching you work in that heat this morning was too much! I spent the day at the pool and watched later. And who needs a Puddin pressure wash video when you do it two weeks in a row???
That truck looks to be a perfect candidate for a small block swap!
She’s pretty clean, def a nice truck, get er running again
Duff is by far the best co-worker ever !!!! Never screws anything up !
That is one sexy truck. I'm happy she went to a good home. I hope the new owner is enjoying her the fullest.
I learnt to drive in one of those back in '68 with my Dad.
This really looks like the farmers going to church International
I owned a 54 International Panel truck and drove it for 4 years and it only quit once when the gas line froze up in cold weather. Slow and noisy, but a real tank. No syncro's in that trany. I bought mine in running condition and sold it for more than I paid for it.
Can't go wrong with that!
I'm not surprised this one went quick, the body was in really great shape.
would love to see a crossover with Vice grip garage. Would be hilarious.
I got to where I read the comments before I watch the videos now, so I'm not disappointed when it's a No Bueno. I still watch and enjoy.
First Mortske video and it has to be a truck line my dad used to like, too. Nice.
Gotta say... That grill looks better with it being bent up a little but back on the truck. A new engine does sound like a good treat for that old truck. Hope ya post a video on it, too.
This one has potential. Pity the engine had so much damage.
Yeah it broke my heart. I had a 55 R-110 with the same engine. Got it with 85k on it and it was the 2nd one that had been placed in it. After putting about 75k more on it , I had it rebuilt for $1100. A big price for a Senior in college. I came home for Christmas and due to heavy snow took my 48 Willy's Pickup 4x4 with a snow plow on it and 500lb of rocks in it from College Spring to Abilene, Tx. Boy it was a great choice. Had a rear winch a front winch ( blocked by plow ) and a couple of yellow strobe lights. When came back my dad HIGHLY suggested I let my brother use it. A couple of years later he blew the rear end. BOOOOO 😭😭😭😭😭
A great find! Worthy of a clean up and bringing her back on the road. Onward!
Had a '49 International truck when I was young. I loved it...all original. As they all say, "I wish I had it now".
I appreciate the honesty. Sometimes you win and sometimes you lose, that's real life.
Holy crap you cleaned it before working on it! I wish you did this a lot more, not because Puddin makes a clean look good, but that I couldn’t stand having a dirty vehicle before working on it. Should have hit the engine bay though, but we’ll take the clean either way. Keep up the great content!
I like what your doing keep going thanks
First time I ever heard of hitting a deer and breaking 2 valves off .
musta hit it REAL HARD!
😂😂😂😂
My 90 yr old grandpa has my late uncles r120 ihc parked at his place. Wanted him to see it running one more time, but spark plugs 1 and 2 had said hello to the pistons, but I managed to get my uncles 65 d1100 ihc running and driving. Plates registered in 91. He said he never thought he would see that truck moving again. Same master cylinder problem as your yellow ihc revival. Same red ground black positive cables too. Thanks for the videos.
My 1955 has a 220 silver diamond. Came pink in color. It was used as a parts running truck for a Cadillac dealer. Very cool find you got there.
That's a cool rig you have as well!
Thank you sir
What a Score, Sweet Truck brother!
+1 on the impact screwdriver comment..
"if you don't know what one is you're working on the right stuff"
Come to Western Scotland if ya wanna see some rust 🤣
Yep, in New England we know what those are too!
Inside outside everything old is new again thanks Mortski value entertainment for my old janky bones
It’s only original if it’s ALL original. That is a great engine and it can be saved. Pistons, rings, valves and gaskets are all available. Send it to me if you don’t want it! Love them corn binders!
Some things are worth spending the money on. I've owned three of those engines. They are worth it.
If nothing else, it's a really good start for an engine swap. I'd guess a replacement IH engine will be a bit hard to come by at this point. But even a small block chevy wouldn't be out of the question for this one.
No swap needed. IHC used that same engine for many years. Shouldn't be too hard to find one.
You'd be surprised at how easy it is to get a rebuild kit for that truck. I have a 53 and a 55. Both run and drive. And I completely rebuilt the engine in the 55 with parts made for that engine you have right there.
Id put a 300 ford and a 5 speed backed with a single wheel toner rear end and a newer 8 bolt disc break straight axle and that would be my new tow rig
Mmmm. Ford 300. Diesel with spark plugs. Unkillable. Love mine to death
I just posted the same. Can't go wrong with a 300.
@@stoveboltlvr3798 I have a '95 F150 in the sideyard that is an absolute POS. No fuel pressure, vacuum leaks for days, leaks like a sieve, the works. We don't drive it hardly ever, tags expired 3 years ago, hadn't had a battery in it at all in 2021. *But it has a 300 under the hood.* Had to rescue my mom because her 03 explorer no-crank'd on 'er while she was doing the doordash shit so I put a battery in that thing, turned the key, aaannnddd.....
**It busted off like it had been running 20 minutes prior.**
It runs like utter shit because of all the vacuum leaks and the fuel system being woefully inadequate but god damnit it still busted off without hesitation and it hit on all six the entire time.
Indestructible engine. Even when it has no business running at all it still runs *and drives*. Ford really needs to stop dicking around with this ecoboost bullshit and bring the ol' 300 back.
A great video. I very much enjoyed it. The Greta thunburg joke was the best part. I was cracking up.
Not everyday I watch a UA-cam video and the man behind the camera says my name Jimmy Werner that was so freaking cool
I’m a big fan!
Somebody should invent a trailer where you can put a truck like this, seal it up and pump in WD-40 or another lubricant and let it sit immersed in it for a week. That might help some of these vehicles.
This could be your $$$$ time.
@@kharnthebetrayer1575 I am in the wrong country. The idea is all yours. You might want to get a lubricant sponsor.
Ran when parked. The dropped valve determined that was a lie. Jimmy spenders you are not the father.
Drop a small block in it and lower it, save the patina and nice wheels too! Nice go to town street rod! 👌🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻 Thanks for sharing Mortske and Duff! Kirk from Louisiana! 🙏🏻🙏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👌🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Good idea!!
33.20 Duff just chilling in the back. "You got this Dad"
He sure loves the corn binder though. Used my Milwaukee impact to take off a crank bolt. Came right off. I love this thing.
Those things are the best!!

I think that sums it up!
Unstuck pistons.
In recent months, I started to having a liking for vintage International trucks like yours Mort. If I had it, I'd take your idea of a Camaro subframe and a 350 Chevy small block for the truck to make it safe and road worthy again. Plus Chevy components are affordable and easy to source unlike the 54 International parts which are scarce as you pointed out. I'd keep the body as is.
Why the subframe? Camaro front end aint strong enough for truck duty.
Much easier to buy a running driving 2000's chevy trailblazer do a body swapp its almost a perfect fit width wise and wheelbase
@@jeremyhanna3852 So you'd make it about 95 times worse?
Hey I got 3 of them trailblazers in my driveway all got over 200k miles ones is stock other one is a 39 chevy body swap coupe other one is 50 chevy truck both run extremely well that 4.2 l6 is a great little motor
@@jeremyhanna3852 They're half as tough as what's underneath that IHC to begin with. Full of 'sealed for life' parts and built to pass a crash test instead of soak up bumps. Also that engine dont hold a candle to the 292 I6 Chevy used to use.
Been stoked to get a new revival video since last Monday! Nothin like workin on the 66 K20 with a cold snack and some mortske repair
I'm in the same boat with my 52 cornbinder..stuck and rusty..I found krud kutter removes the rust ,but it still hasn't turned yet..good luck!~
Mortske: "So whattya think Duff...Do you think we should keep this one?
Duff(Tail Wagging) : Yup.., I yike it!
Mortske: yeah...I gotta say....,"She's got that funky mold patina
Duff: " This truck would give Puddin' a Wooden."
Now we're talkin'.....
Bro, this one is definitely a keeper.. You won't find anything nicer for the year and shape, it's much more than yard art. She's got good bones, nice interior, its all there and its a fine looking truck.
If you got the title go for it. LS swap, a game changer for sure. It's even Duff approved, what more do you need? A small investment of time, some used parts, this could be a money maker/ game changer for you down the road.
If I would have found that I would go with the overhaul or the 302 Ford 6 cylinder . Those engines have 7 main bearings and I don’t think you can break them with an AK 47. Paint the floors and cab corners with Por-15 and drive it.
@@farmguys1 sorry to correct my friend, there's no such animal as a 302 six cylinder in a Ford, a 302 is a small block V8, the closet to that in a six cylinder is a 300ci it has 7 mains, this is the one you are referring to. The 300 is essentially a truck motor, same size as a 240 ci in a car but with a longer compression stroke.
Many of those Ford 300 engines are still being used today in courier vans and yes I agree, they are very stout when it comes to power, torque and taking punishment.
Gonna be waiting for puddin to jump out on this one. 😂
I Was Thinking The Same Thing
That's right😅💯
That's a good solid International, but that engine fought you all the way, till you cried UNCLE. If it we're me, I'd like for an International 345 V-8, to keep it all in the family. Baring that, a swap of one sort or another. Jimmy suspenders has got some explaining to do, he suckered you !
That ole IH is a really nice piece. Alot nicer than my current Goin to town rig.
🤣
Love your dedication to find out what’s going on
North Dakota to Mesa Az. The International and the lowered white GMC are two I would jump on in a heartbeat if they were here or at least a thousand miles closer. Great video as always Mortske. Thanks.
They can be shipped!
@@MortskeRepair I did get a quote for the International although either pick up would be the same cost. Est. 1600 miles @ .82 cents a mile=$1312.00. They said depending on how remote the pick up location was it could cost a bit more. Shipping is always the deal breaker. A while back I sold a rust free 76 Nova hatchback to a guy in Vancouver Canada whose own Nova was a rust bucket. Had it shipped to Vancouver on the US side where he picked it up and took it across the border. That was $1000.
@@boblamb8421 yeah I do all my own hauling for that reason.
I'd put a more modern motor in it, something like a Ford 300 I6.
I second that!
Has that been done before, much difficulty, which Trans, AOD....
@@joeschlotthauer840 I would just put a regular manual granny gear four speed in it or as a last resort a three speed. Lots of them out there. I have done similar swaps in the past and the only real engineering is in making the clutch linkage work. If you know how to weld and have the ability to think on your feet, it's really not all that hard. An auto swap is usually even easier, but not as much fun to drive.
I've had three of those engines. They don't come any better.
@@highpower3006
Thanks for your polite and informative response
That would make a great project puddin would love that truck
puddins videos suck!
@@Bill-xc8le Puddin's videos may not be for you buddy.
Ball coolers are seriously the one thing the auto industry needs to bring back arguably more than full size spare tires
No doubt!
Not gonna lie I was searching at work for parts for that international I think all I can help you get is a doorman universal cigarette lighter it fits everything from a seado to a bobcat years ranging between 1920 - 1990
@@rushley5813 Yeah it's tough being an IH owner!
@@MortskeRepair yeah I've gathered that from my brother and ole mudflap mike
I had two of these back in the late 70's, both were 6 cyl., 4speed, blew the engine in both of them. One was beat up quite bad so I just used it for parts. Finely due to the lack of available parts, I changed the engine from the better of the two. I put a 1967 Barracuda slant six in it. A week or so later I drove it loaded with everything I owned in it 350 miles to Connecticut for a new job, two months later I sold it to get the money I needed to file for a divorce ( the smartest thing I ever did, still single today :-) ).
I wish you luck with this one, I enjoyed driving mine, Wish I still had it today.

'Merica Monday With Mortske!
Murica!!!
Is that Juan Valdez's hat? I used to wear one when standing at a concrete pump in the blistering sun in Californication. I sure miss that hat.
When in doubt it’s always the starter. Or the engine... or the spark plugs. But because it’s Mortske.... it’s another great video. 👍👍👍👍
I found a nice bagger lawn mower ran good once I put oil in it great video
Why not go with a Cummins diesel and a 5 speed!!! Orr you could do a 440 Dodge and Hurst that would WORK!!!
Be dam hard to get a big block between those fenders
I can hear Jimmy Suspenders laughing right now.
He got me good!
Mr mortske that is a really fair price for this solid truck, wish I could buy it and put a LS in, thanks for being a reasonable person
This truck is great. it deserves to be repaired. Thanks to share.
Glad you enjoyed it Sylvain!
Wow that is a keeper! Super solid for its age. Keep going on that and turn it into a multi part series! Maybe even do an engine swap! On another note; he is the old Bronco?
I still have it.
What a cool truck. Needs a Power Stroke swap.
You got one to donate good sir?!?
no needs a cummins or a 5.9

PS swap would be cool. And the other comment with the IH tractor. Or a Ford 300 would be different..ish…
Duff is an excellent assistant!
I though you wouldn’t get another! Sweet!!
You should get the study too!
What about finding a rusted or rough 7.3 powerstroke? International engine, one ton axles, disc brakes, 2wd or 4wd and body swaping it.

Dannggit! That thing is sweet and looked great when wet!
Hey - and what's this with buying stuff that already has the valves broke for you? You saving yourself time and just skipping ahead to the inevitable conclusion?
Luck of the draw as they say!
Love those old trucks. stick whatever motor combination you think would work well in it and get it back on the road.
Right on
Looks like a GM 3800 4 speed candidate, I would have done it 10 years age ( I’m 75) ! She needs to live( and rally LIVE) !
I bet someone gives her a new home before you get a chance to do anything with it.
You were correct!
Mortske: "We'll just throw a battery in and see if she rolls over"
Starter (who hadn't been listening) : "What? Who's there? What does he wanna do?"
Solenoid (who HAD) "I'm gonna give the boy a hint about this engine and see if he will listen"
Puddin' : "He should change the name of his channel to Mortske's Starter Repair"
Solenoid: "You aint listening. I'm on strike so he don't go wasting his time on this POS"
Mortske: "Rocker area looks real good"
Solenoid: "You can't tell a book by its cover, boy. You still aint listening"
Mortske: "Let's play the game of how many valves are stuck. Stuck, not....."

Awesome truck! That hood design is awesome too. I wish I could find something this cool, abandoned here in Michigan. Usually they’re so rusty it’s almost not worth the hassle. Mr. ‘Spenders has some explaining to do
Welcome to the IH truck family brother! I have a 52 L-110 panel van and a 67 1200 4x4 myself. My 52 had a bent push rod as well 😂 and that head was definitely a back breaker to get out without a cherry picker haha
Just because it's becoming the less popular option these days, v8 swap, convert it to 4x4, and put a lift on it
My best cleanup find ever, was $28 in change in an 87 Shelby Z, who’s original owner stopped driving after college in 1990. There were piles of quarters. Doirs had been locked and only had the ignition key for 18 yrs. Brand new neon shoe strings were in the passenger seat.
Another awesome Mortske Monday! Bummer Duff couldn't come. I bet he wasn't happy about that. Good luck🐾
Yes I hung around of course brother as always nice find
