If it's a 727 makes sure you check it in NEUTRAL with the engine running. It will show fuller in Park than it actually is because of how the fluid is routed from the pump in the park position.
Love those old Cornbinders. Engines that seemingly run forever (even though they won't pass anything including a gas station). 727 Torqueflites are the best automatic ever built. MoPar race cars from the '60's and '70's will attest to that. Looks like a winner for a shop truck that's just a little different.
allways amazed that those old trucks start and isnt total rustbuckets. And about the noise, did not mind it at all. really liked the sound of that chainsaw. made it sound real and genuine.
The original square body!!! My stepdad had a similar year International pickup, but it was gold and a half ton. I always liked that truck, probably because we owned it and also because it just wasn't as common as Chevy's and Ford's so you didn't see as many around. Can't wait to see how the build progresses.
I had a 74 200 4x4 for 23 years. It was a 392 4 speed and ran like a Swiss watch. It got 10 mpg all day long, loaded or not. It was solid as a rock and absolutely beat you to death. I would suggest replacing the transmission with a 4 speed OD unit for better mileage and lower rpm at highway speeds. If budget allows a fuel injection change over would make it modern daily driver. Keep up the good work.
Those old International engines are real beasts. Solid piece of 'Murican iron. Extra credit for the Marvel Mystery Oil pre-treatment on those cylinders.
I own 3 old IH's all with 345's. One was sitting since 74, one since 93, and one for 5 years. All 3 of them fired right up with a little fuel down the carb. Those engine are one of the most bullet proof gas engines ever put in a truck.
@@gerryroush8391 I totally agree. I hate seeing them with really any other engine other than an IH bred, but there's something about an ls that adds insult to injury.
I have done a lot of 727 and 904 trans. It is worth the time to take out the valve body and see if the valves are gummed up from sitting. Easy to put in a shift kit at the same time. I have saved a lot of them with that trick.
I bought a 1968 1200C 4x4 that had been sitting in the woods for 30 years. It was an old fire department brush truck. Had 29K on the clock. 304 cubic inch that was stuck from sitting. Doused the cylinders with penetrating oil. Let sit for a week, then some more oil. Put 4 gallons of oil in, drained it. Then she broke free. Plugs , wires, rotor, cap , and points. Hooked up the boat tank and within a minute she was idling like a new truck! I really like those old trucks
I have a 1975 IH 200 4x4 with a 345. Also has the 727 transmission. Wouldn’t trade it for anything. I’m very much looking forward to watching this truck get built.
Would love to see you do a budget transmission rebuild. She reminds me of our old 64 studebaker champ. We loved that old truck. Now I want an old shop truck again.
I'm glad you showed the carb rebuild- wish you had showed just a little more of it because I just got my step-dad old ford truck and it needs a carb rebuild or replace so I found that part super informative 👍- i really enjoy the videos of these cars and trucks being brought back from the dead
Love it. Since you are planning to keep it, fix the gearbox, light tint on those windows for hot days, slight paint refurb job with your logo on it. Nice exhaust and tidy up the suspension to make it a great work machine for moving things. Plus with your logo it will be a good example of your work as an advertisement :P
Awesome! Love to see an International build.! Everyone has done chevys and fords The 727 is a really simple transmission. You should have no problems building it yourself
Since that's a '69 it should have a Borg Warner automatic transmission,IH didn't start using 727 transmission until around '72 or '73, the '73 that I owned in the middle nineties had one of them
Looks like you really lucked out on that deal. That cab interior looks like the upgraded deluxe version, which is possibly rare for a 3/4 ton pickup. Some exhaust work, some wiring, and rattle can paint on the bed to match the cab, y'all will have a good looking truck to send down the road
In the mid 70s I worked for a company that had Travelall with a 345 and a 1/2 ton with a 400. Both of them were powerful and long lasting but both of them were really thirsty, I mean really thirsty. I was working 100 miles away in about 1990 when I looked up to see the 1974, which the company had sold with over 100k on it in about 1980 going down the street. It had the shop logo on it still and although it had dents all over it I recognized it. That truck had torque that was phenomenal but it had two gas tanks for a reason
Great to see you giving an ol' Cornbinder some love. Unless an aftermarket swap happened, which is certainly possible, that auto trans would be a Borg Warner 11. The Torqueflite was not a faktree deal in these Binders until the 1972 model year.
Great looking solid truck, it's good to see these old vehicles get a second chance to run another day. Good content, can't wait to see more on this truck keep safe and have fun from the UK
Always check the starter for being loose, most people don’t have the correct tools to tighten the starter correctly. I’ve found many loose starters that damage the flex plate and most of the time you can just take a file and knock the burrs off the teeth from a loose starter.
Now you're speaking my language, my uncle was an International dealer from the fifties up until August of 1969,my dad bought a brand new '68 1100 pickup from him and I myself had a couple of Internationals myself, one was my uncle's last truck,a '73 1110 and the other a '71 1210 four wheel drive ex fire department truck, they both had 345 engines in them.
A great old truck. Looking forward to seeing what you folks do with it. My grandfather retired from IH, my older sisters were models in their truck ads back in the late ‘50s.
Ah International time....very nice. Wondering when we were going to see this video. Great job getting it going!! As always awesome video and much love from Pickens buddy!
As always love the vids Michael.. my pops had a 71 IH truck... this one reminds me of his. Really glad to see the work paying off for you. Stay the course!!
I remember a guy that bought one of these IH trucks back in 84. It needed a brake job and parts were not available any more then. I believe that they actually had to modify Chevy brakes to fit the truck.
That 345 runs like a sewing machine. Nice and quiet. May need some new valve seals though. not too hard to do if you've got the right tools. Looks like she puffs a little smoke on startup. As long as you ran it before the transmission test all the mystery oil that may have been left should have burnt off after the first minute or so of running it. VERY cool straight old truck. May want to toss some actual coolant in it, though as winter is almost on top of us.
I like videos where you work on a vehicle that you are keeping, I get sad when flipping time comes, but I understand that’s how you pay the bills, looking forward to seeing more of this boxy dinosaur!
My father left me a 1970 international harvester step side with a straight 6 and a 3 speed on the floor with a rusty bed floor. How do you fix that? Doesnt your f100 have the same issue?
It sounds good? That motor sounds amazing!! I am sure you will find a budget friendly way to get that transmission back to like new condition. Looking forward to this series!!!
the international pick up was the best pick up ever made they only quite making it due too not selling enough of them but that pick up did not break down after 10 years
In a perfect world, I'd win that swapped Intl. Scout, & trade you for the old school pickup - I've owned MoPars, GM, even a handful of Fords (Mistakes exc. for the '70 Van), so a real International would be fun. Guess I'll have to love it from afar. I hope you go for the home rebuild on the trans - if the case isn't porous or otherwise damaged, a kit should make it right as rain. Then you could take a look at the brakes - I think the RF one either drags or locks up before the other 3.
Well I am glad your keeping it and going to fix it up, and I would Name the truck Clint, it's tough like Eastwood and Square like his Jawline lol 😂 and it just looks like it don't take no Sh&$/ittt!!! And will out perform any old truck you got. Once you fix it. Please keep us updated on the build
Hey if u ever need to clean any thing engine wise is to put diesel fuel and trans fluid to make one cleaning mixture good for every thing to do with oil build up
Unless that's been swapped at some time it should have a Borg Warner automatic in it, not saying it's not a 727 but probably not the original transmission that came with the truck.
You’re very correct! Shortly after finishing up the video, figured out these pre ‘71 trucks have the ole BW...time for a swap 😅 looking at it a little closer instantly knew it wasn’t a 727 🤷🏼♂️ learning as I go lol
@@BudgetBuildz the '73 that I had used a 727 in it, I didn't know for sure what year that IH made the change to the 727-around the same time AMC switched from the B-W to the 727 also.
![FNAF vs TF2 - Episode 2 [SFM]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/z5b3V2-VLb0/mqdefault.jpg)
I beg of you, please don’t swap an LS into that truck, keep it IH
Seeing and hearing that old International fire up was a beautiful moment.
If it's a 727 makes sure you check it in NEUTRAL with the engine running. It will show fuller in Park than it actually is because of how the fluid is routed from the pump in the park position.
learned how to drive in one of these in the late 1960s as a little boy! A 1964 IH 3 speed on the floor! Have been a clutch man ever since. 11/03/20

Had a 59 International Travel all, wish I still had it, would be a great project. Thanks for sharing, look forward to your build.
Love IH. My dad had a junkyard in the 1980s and our tow trucks were a 72IH with a 345 and a 69IH with a 304. Cant wait to see the build. Subscribed.

Love it...
Try filling the oil filter as much as you can, an FL1 will hold almost a quart of oil. That last cam bearing will appreciate it...
Glad you’re keeping that old lady, can’t wait to see what you do with it.
Most honest channel on RUclips!
Fast , no smoke... Bravo. Thanks to share with us. Sy

I bought my Dad a 69 International with a 304 V8 and 4 speed back in the 80's my brother fixed a dropped lifter and the thing ran for years
Very cool. We don't get anything like this in the UK. You guys have all the fun. Don't worry about all the hatters on road noise. They're idiots. ❤️.
Donated to Children's Hospital. Wish me luck. You guys are fun to watch!! (Including your pops cause we are old, older than him. Wink.)
Man, you can't kill those old Binders. But they are a bear to get parts for...

I like your commentary on the different projects and the fact you like old cars and trucks.
Props for not immediately doing a burnout once you got it running.. body looks to be in amazing shape. How's the frame?

Well maybe this pickup just needs a filter and band adjustment

A truck from my youth. Love it. Would LOVE to see you work on an early 70's Chevy C-10.

Also love your Wolfsburg shirt 👍👍

Awesome job getting it to run after 24 years! Keep it up!
Pruitt's transmission shop in Anderson do an awesome job.

Working on the carburetor on the pavement is always good on the carburetor base!
Next time you plan to take off Parts on the carburetor put down a white cloth makes it a lot easier to find stuff
Sweet truck. I hang out for your new vids. BTW the background noise isn't as bad as you think, the mic seems to pick up your voices fine!
bought one of these for my first project truck, i love it!
Ah International time....very nice. Wondering when we were going to see this video. Great job getting it going!! As always awesome video and much love from Pickens buddy!
I know nothing about International... but this is a good work you doing and sharing.
Sweet truck, need to see some transmission rebuilds on RUclips, probably out there but I haven't seen too many gearheads taking them apart yet.
Starter and flywheel combo sounds fine send it!!! Lol
Where did you go to get the information on the spark plugs...
Website link....
As always love the vids Michael.. my pops had a 71 IH truck... this one reminds me of his. Really glad to see the work paying off for you. Stay the course!!
Nice!! I can't wait to follow the progress on that truck!!
What a great truck! I would love to have one of those!
First thing I do is trash all Holley carbs. A Carter from a Mopar or Rochester from GM are VAST improvements, and in the 2bbl, easy to find.
Body on the international looks to be solid
I remember a guy that bought one of these IH trucks back in 84. It needed a brake job and parts were not available any more then. I believe that they actually had to modify Chevy brakes to fit the truck.
Your channel and videos are a lot better than a few others I’ve checked out!!
Y’all come up with some great vehicles. Thanks for sharing with us.
That 345 runs like a sewing machine. Nice and quiet. May need some new valve seals though. not too hard to do if you've got the right tools. Looks like she puffs a little smoke on startup.

Awesome video! I luv these old internationals. Might be the perfect candidate for a flat bed
A good, easy watch video. Well done and looking forward to the rebuild on this one.
I'd suggest that you just REBUILD the Transmission. Because it's cheaper! Hopefully...
I like videos where you work on a vehicle that you are keeping, I get sad when flipping time comes, but I understand that’s how you pay the bills, looking forward to seeing more of this boxy dinosaur!
Could have at least added some zinc additive, if you want that cam to last long, also some 10w40 or something instead of the 30
The road noise makes this a challenge to watch. Love the truck though!!!
Looking forward to seeing this truck get put in good order. Nice truck.
I’m excited for this one! That’s a beauty!
Great International Longbed!👍
11:06 SHE'S ALIVEEEEEEE!!!!!! 🤯🤯
Ive got my great grandpas 67 IH B1100 hasnt ran since around 85 slow process to get it back on the road
Cool truck, you just don’t see them anymore. Once you get the bugs worked out, it will be awesome.
man I LOVE this truck. Can't wait to see what you guys will do with it. Love the old scouts, too. Well done!

That was cool how the truck kicked in so easy well worth throwing a new gearbox in it man
Great videos love them

Also great for unsticking pistons or sealing piston rings

the international pick up was the best pick up ever made they only quite making it due too not selling enough of them but that pick up did not break down after 10 years
Luv that international! Things in great shape!
put some magnets in the trans pan ,the big ones
Did you keep that one or get rid of it that was a keeper.
awesome video I like those trucks and International Scouts :) looking forward for more videos on this truck and the Porsche
They usually get parked for a reason. But the good news is they're about 10x cheaper and easier to repair.
