Like cars, trucks have undergone drastic changes since Henry Ford created the first car in 1900. However, one of the first manufactures to produce trucks was International Harvester. They produced trucks for approximately 68 years; from 1907 to 1975. They are best known for making Scouts. In 1917, the most popular truck to roll off the production line was Ford’s Model T. When these trucks first came off the line the price tag was $281. Nowadays these same old trucks for sale will cost you 100 times that amount. However, in 1917, this was considered a lot of money. Due to Fords’ success, other car manufactures got into the mix. Chevrolet was the next large manufacture to start designing and manufacturing automobiles. In 1957, Jeeps or Willys as known by collectors came onto the market. However, getting your hand on a Willy Jeep is almost impossible today.

The 60s were a big era for all kinds of new automobiles and International Harvester got its piece of the auto manufacturing pie during this era.

International Harvester had long been manufacturing big trucks, pickups and the travel all so they not only had a good reputation but they had plenty of experience in building solid reliable vehicles.  IH produced an alternative to the Jeep by introducing the Scout in 1961.

They had a great run from 1961 to 1980 with the Scout, Scout 80, Scout 800, Scout II and SS II.  Today these vehicles are considered classics and you can find an International Scout For Sale online.  International Scout Parts are also available online if you are in need of special International Scout  parts for a restoration.

 

  • The International Harvester Scout was manufactured in both 2WD and 4WD versions in Fort Wayne, Indiana.
  • Prior to 1967 the engines in the Scout were 93 hp 4 cylinder engines with a 3 speed manual transmission.
  • In 1967 IH manufactured their first V8 266 cubic inch engine.
  • A little known fact about the Scout is that the concept car developed in 1979 was never introduced to the public market due to the closing of the company.

Many classic car collectors look for an International Scout For Sale to restore as they have become quite popular in recent years.  Even the old vintage IH Scout ads from magazines are popular among collectors.

Chevy

The name Chevrolet has become synonymous with trucks.  The first Chevy truck rolled off the production line in 1918, the same year that Chevrolet Motor Company became a part of General Motors.  The 490 Light Delivery was Chevrolet's first truck.  Much of its components were identical to the cars, including the instrument panel, foot pedals and steering wheel.  In 1937, however, Chevy's pickup truck era took off.  One of Chevy's most famous trucks, though, was the Model 3124 Cameo Carrier in 1955.  This was the look that defined many trucks of that day and even today, this is the model that is most identified with when people think of antique trucks and shop for classic trucks for sale.

Classic Truck Parts For Sale

There was a time when I spent hours in my garage restoring a classic truck. I would also spend many an hour at a junkyard, looking, searching, sifting, comparing, to find those Classic Truck Parts. Then I would spend time talking with the junkyard owner and try to get more information of other places he would be able to possibly find the particular parts I was looking for and in need of. Sometimes I would locate Classic Truck Parts through this junkyard owner but have to drive up to a hundred miles to go and purchase his item. Ever thankful for the tip, but it was quite time consuming.

With today's current up to the minute world on the Internet, those days are a definite bygone.
