- This week we’ve got this cream puff 1950 International L-110 pickup truck, it’s been sitting abandoned and forgotten for 33 years! Let’s see if we can get it running and driving again, and put it back on the road!

Man, these old cars/trucks were so nice and stylish back then!
You should add family days in your truck!
I felt like I was riding with my dad in his old truck. Thank you.
That’s awesome, your comment made my day, thank you!
Internationals are awesome......they were one great rig!!!
They sure are, this truck runs like a top and gets a lot of looks!
nice, you find the most rare and interesting trucks for sure :), interesting about the Generator Technology back then, when I was like 11 yrs. old in the late 70's my science Teacher in school talked about vintage Car Generators and had one spinning by giving it power in our class, then explained the reverse when using it as a Generator and polarizing it because back then They didn't use permanent magnets, so summer during summer a bunch of us kids were out in the woods and found some really old cars abandoned with no hoods and one had one of the generators loose sort of and I wanted it to experiment with so try to remove it with no tools and I disturbed a wasps nest, well I got stung several times on my hands and never was able to remove it, the pain was unbearable I remember, so when I watch your videos and see old trucks you are trying to show and start in a field I cringe when I see wasps flying around you :)
It does seem like every single one of these old rigs has a couple wasp nests in them. I’m not sure why, but I usually don’t pay attention to them, and they don’t seem to bother me.
Thanks!
That thing is SWEEET!!
Classic car revivals sent us. We subscribed.
Awesome! Thanks for the sub. This truck is super sweet!
@@Rustwrangler looking forward to seeing whatcha do with it!
For a truck that looks original from 1950, it sure looks and runs pretty well. Those were definitely simpler times when those trucks were built with no soundproofing, hardly any modern conveniences. Puddin's Fab Shop would be looking for any old International truck in that condition!
I agree, this truck is so basic and simple, I think we might end up completely redoing this truck in the future. Had some other local folks comment on how rust free and good of shape this one’s in.
I like how the bonnet opens both sides & can be completely removed - good design! Given how "easily" you got it running, and there does not seem to be much wrong with it, it makes me wonder why it stopped being used all those years ago? A nice looking truck! Thanks for sharing, greetings from the UK!
Thank you! It seems as though it most likely got parked and left where it was sitting at some point due to its age, or maybe a project that someone thought they would get to at some point.
Made me feel old when said never driven a three on the tree. 👍
They sure are fun to drive!
Funky rig!
you have to remember that a generator usually only works at higher rpm most of the time .
Yea I definitely had to figure that out. Didn’t realize it until I tested it with the choke pulled out and it was idling at a higher rpm.
I owned and drove a 1954 (iirc) R-110 Series International. Easiest thing to use IF you took care of the basic maintenance.
Nice! Yea these things are very simple rigs.
Cool old truck 🛻🛻🛻🛻👍
When you look at the hot mess that Navistar makes today it’s hard to believe that they once made simple, reliable, and extremely durable engines .
No kidding!
New frame new.engie Menu, get a nice, get a nice Dodge or Ford ford train. Put that puppy on there and put new seeds. Take the intricacy I did International. Put on you guts in there and there. I'm making an automatic, make it an automatic put it LS in there. I go from there unless you wanna cody ace
