This is a testimonial to these old engines and their resilience! It's amazing how when you first started it it actually was idling on its own! Great video!
I felt so happy to see the old girl pull herself out of years of neglect! Hopefully she's getting restored to her former glory and being looked after on her dotage!! 😁😁😁
I would think checking electrical system like coils, points, ground, etc would be right after oil check/ change. Of course you’ve got to see if it will crank a little. That will be one heck of a truck if it’s totally restored. One mean machine.
I love these old American trucks and pickups and it fascinates me how robust they are, starting after decades abandoned. Great content. Thank you. Best wishes from New Zealand. I look forward to more footage. Good luck.
oh man I Love old internationals. I just watched someone else dig one of these, almost exact trucks too, out of the weeds. It was used in the Oil industry and used for Drilling . Had what looked like the attachments and all the equipment attached to the rear ... it was a Beast . I rem driving one of these old trucks when i was a kid, uncle had a few and some were turned into Forklifts, Massive forklifts for Logging, was a thing in Northern Canada. They would remove the cab from the front and slide it to the rear and stick on the lift and whatnot to the rear and would drive backwards. A lot of them were all controlled with levers, no steering wheel , all hydrolic, however ya spell it. I must have driven a dozen of those home made forklifts, and they were Huge.. So much fun to drive and operate when your 8 years old :) They made do with what they had back then, thats for sure .. Great memories these trucks bring back . Cheers .
My father and uncles work for the Van Buren county road commission up in Michigan back in the 1970s . The plow trucks for plowing snow on the roads in the winter time had huge v plows on the front they were bright orange 5 yd dump trucks with bottom plows also attached to the underbelly of the truck. These trucks at high RPM were loud and scary looking to a child watching them come towards you. And nothing at all could you could stop them from completing their job clearing every road in the county. We ended up buying a 56 in the 1980s for our farm use. " as a teenager I learned to operate this truck quite easily fore we used it year-round on our farm. We would use the grader underbelly plow to level our long gravel driveway in the summer and snow removal in the winter .we would fill the dump box full of fire wood that we cut or sand and gravel that we needed to apply on various areas of the farm .we ended up selling it years ago and it still is in use on another farm today serving the same purpose it did for my family .if I had this boom truck I would restore it and put a flat bed on it to haul anything I wanted and take it to local truck and tractor shows also .😊
Yikes, it has some seriously square rear wheels! 😄 Small wonder, after sitting out there for all these years. Good job returning this beast to life, and good luck with the restoration job!
There's something really satisfying about even watching a video like this. While it's easier to wake up some of these old workhorses than newer vehicles, it still takes some effort to get that far. Hope she makes herself useful as a street legal tow truck
Good job on getting the old truck running .I hope that you are able to restore the old truck to the former glory, that it had, in years gone by; both mechanical & cosmetic.
There you go clean and adjust those points. Good luck with the make shift tab in the distributor. You need a squirt bottle for filling the fuel bowl. A old Ketchup bottle from a restaurant or a flea market works great.
I would also like to know what happened to the people who was going to work on the tractor and what suddenly happened to them that they just had to abandon such a project that back in the day would have been extremely expensive and probably very necessary to operate the farm? 🧐😉
The simplicity is remarkable when compared to todays vehicles. I used to work on vehicles ALL the time. Now I rarely open the hood and then to jump start something.
No matter how many times he says "let's fire it up" and it doesn't, at least he keeps at it. He also is very innovative in trying to get this old truck back to life.
What a great effort and success ! And a celebratory camera smack at the end. Hope to see how you progress getting this International on the road. Really enjoyed this, so thank you.
Man way back in 1974 I worked for a large concrete construction road pavers. They had a few old. Corn binders hauling concrete on with mixer tanks on back. They were rough but worked. Thanks from. Sc.
Beautiful truck thanks for saving her. Used to drive in the late 70s__a '57 rdf190, straight6 petrol, twin stick with tandem drive pulling a logging trailer. 280 mile round trips.
So many people talking trash about his methods but the outcome was great! Sure he missed many steps that would have made her pop off sooner but he went out and got the job done! Goodonya!!!
yep just about all ihc engines were indestructible they never built a automotive engine all ihc engines are industrial engines and built to run at a sustained rpm for long periods which would kill most auto type engines this engine i believe is a red diamond 450 and has a 100% duty cycle at 1800 rpm
IH did build automotive type engines for their pickups Travelalls and Scouts. They had the Silver Diamond series inline 6 the Black Diamond series then later the 152 slant 4 cyl. for Scouts. They produced the 304,345 and 392 v8s for their pickups and medium duty trucks. They did not produce automatic transmissions. Their last trucks had Chrysler torqueflite automatic (727) trannys.
@@amcken9316 I was thinking of just getting it going with basic tools in average tool box/The cranks wet with oil for ages so without load should be ok
I want to give a huge shout out to the starter and battery for a lifetime of starts in a few days. With all that work this truck deserves to be repaired and painted! Definitely a survivor!
I was going to give you guff over that broken spark-plug, but you came through like a thoroughbred, lol, except for cleaning the points right off, did you really think there was a chance the points didn't need it?,🤭, and you missed the wench-shot after immediately talking about it, but I'm sure that sort of stuff will get better with time,🙏, awesome video, thanks for sharing.
There was a truckie in Australia that converted one these R190s to a tilt bonnet and put a Detroit 6V71T in it. One of the best looking truck's of the time, late 50s. Hope you can tidy it up.
I HAD to sub to you mate , Love watching old gear put back to running order . And im all about Learning things . Thank you for doing what you do good sir. Cheers.
We had one like this with a dump bed on it. My Dad also used it to haul coal, gravel, sand, just anything to make a dollar. I drove it in the fields at a very young age. My Dad would put it in low range and low gear, then set the hand throttle for me, then step out on the running board so I could drive! One thing that sticks in my mind was the electric Arvin heater. Instant heat on those cold mornings. No waiting for the engine to heat up. We used it hard. Pulled stumps with it. Got tractors out of the mud with it. Just a workhorse.
Beautiful old truck thanks for saving her, drove a '57 RDF 190 Straight 6 petrol, twin stick, with a tandem drive, pulling a tandem axel logging trailer back in '77s__ the truck was 6 months older than I was.
I am impressed it ran so good. Usually when they sit a long time, they run but they run poorly because the valves are stuck or the carburetor is gummed up
I love it. I enjoyed it. It’s always fun getting these old trucks running again. After you pulled out. I saw you knocked the camera down at the end of the video. But still good job getting it running.
The old R-190's were some of the original trailer truck freight tractors, 'R' meant road, as in over the road trucking. My dad drove a great looking red R-190 with black fenders that ran out of Birmingham, Alabama starting in the late 50's.
@@scootertrash911 r is just the series that came after the l series you could get anything from a r110 1/2 ton pickup to a tractor like this i dont remember what the largest sizes was but i know they went up to r220 but id have to dig out a ihc brochure from 53 to 55 i believe. the l series wasnt much diffrent from the latter just a little cosmetics i believe like a different grille
Try holding a gas soaked rag near the air intake Even with a bad carb it will fire Also helps with getting air out of the lines and can be used to bypass the rotted gas
Oh for the love of Mike & Ike! Never... NEVER PLACE ANYTHING THAT CAN GET SUCKED UP NEAR AN INTAKE!!! Here's your EPIC FACEPALM moment of the week! The appropriate thing to do in this case would have been to make sure the fuel bowl was clear then fill it manually. Next? Use a fuel spray or starting fluid spray while turning over the engine. Lose a rag down the intake and you're looking at bending valves and damaging rocker arms and/or pistons amongst other things. If by some chance no damage occurs, you'll have fun fishing the rag out of where it jams up and you've got to get it ALL out of the intake before additional start attempts. Fail to do so and you're back to square one where what's left of the rag could cause damage. Do the smart thing - do not allow anything to get sucked into the intake manifold through the carb. EVER. No good thing will ever come of this. Even if your "rag" is large enough to not go down, using a spray is a vastly superior method of getting an engine to start. Peace & good vibes! 🤦🏻♂️✌🏻🤔 - Max Giganteum
It’s not like you couldn’t see what it needed after the first visual look see. Wetting the carburetor with fuel really helps. A little startling fluid for a kick. Not much experience but you’ll get there.
i have a 1970 IH school bus. i think it has that same motor. guy i got it from said its a 406. they drove it from Cailfornia to Pennsylvania. said it got 6 mpg! gas was cheap back then.
if i had to guess id say a r220 with a red diamond 450 and if im right you got a hell of a combo there that motor wont get much for mpg but will pull anything you will probably need pulled just remember that motor should never turn faster than 1800 rpm if it is a 450 but will do it all day at 100% duty cycle wish i could get my hands on a r160 for a reasonable price
that red diamond engine is built better than most diesels nowadays 100% duty cycle at 1800 rpm but wont get the mpg that a diesel would the best option for a diesel for that thing would be a dt360
Old is gold That till date they still crank and smooth sound reveals the highest degree of engineering marvel. Modern vehicles life span is 15 years or 5 lakhs kilometre All the best
I love how you literally had to cut down trees to rescue it 😂 i think it's great youre saving these old rigs. They dont make em like they used to!!!! Understatement.
Boy, the younger generation keeps forgetting about those pesky points and distributor when it comes to ignition systems. Those were the good old days for sure
ill take points over electronic any day for reliability purposes i live in the middle of nowhere and if an electronic gizmo gives up then im walkin 50 miles to a parts store would just be my luck points can always be cleaned up on the side of the road. but mech inj diesel is where its really at
I started watching this and saw it was a gasoline engine and just thought UUGGHH! You did a very decent job of getting it going but they are so much more difficult to get running than diesel engines are , you did a great job!!!
hell of a truck thats for sure we always had binders on the farm right now my main everything truck is a 67 loadstar 1700 345 and t35 + 2 speed axle with a dump bed got a few things i need to do to it but aint had the money but keeps on getting on down the road
That's a great solid truck. Sometimes people will get rid of a vehicle, through frustration, because they couldn't get it to start and all they probably needed was a new set of points.
Wow this motor sounds good. These old American made vehicles are simply indestructible! I drive a 74 Dodge Superior with the 440 v8 and it sat in a field for years and started right up after priming the carburetor. I've been driving it daily since for two years and it even sounds like this
When I seen that big IH I just couldn't pass by. Whenever you're bringing one back from the dead, fill the carburetor Bowl on the initial startup through the vent. Disconnect the fuel line and put on a fresh Supply. Crank and enjoy If it gives you a hard time poor a little oil down its gullet it boosts compression. Or as you found out start playing with the ignition.😅
your kidding right if not then you need to do a little learning on what makes a good truck. these were some of the best work trucks ever made and you can take that to the bank just about all ihc equiptment was at the top of the food chain.
@@ozarkmike735 it’s hard to find parts for them, sadly. If you do find them, parts are super expensive. They were beautiful trucks. Like everything else, few people ever really appreciate them and care for them like they deserve. Nice truck tractor.
@@marthagomez7335 ill agree if you dont know what your looking for parts can be difficult to obtain but i daily drive a 67 loadstar with a 345 as a work truck for example the carrier bearing needs replaced they will tell you that particular bearing is no longer available what they dont know is the bearing is available with a different bolt pattern so all i have to do is re work the mount a presta bearing is available after all i rebuilt a ihc 196 a few years ago and everyone would swear up and down that parts were hard to find. well not really if you knew each and every part with the right dimensions individually. thats the problem with most so called mechanics if they cant get it in a kit they give up and say its impossible
With all those pines what part of the south are you in? Some folks have all the luck. Sure wish I could find something like that. Is the body in decent shape? Sounds like it runs good and no smoking. Some new tires and a little fixing up and you will have a good truck.
Love this adventure. If you try this at home; bring plenty of fire extinguishers. Expect the carb to leak like a sieve, rodents to have chewed on the wiring, the exhaust to leak in all the wrong places. Expect the clutch to be froze and the brakes locked up, no oil where there should be and water where there shouldn’t.
Great subject (very old truck) great video (Detailed, but not overly) and congratulations on geting it running. Sounds wonderful! Would make a good, "Bombing around the property doing work stuff" vehicle.
Why didn't you prime the carburetor
Cause its a new truck.
My question as well. Maybe check for spark too.

hell of a truck thats for sure we always had binders on the farm right now my main everything truck is a 67 loadstar 1700 345 and t35 + 2 speed axle with a dump bed got a few things i need to do to it but aint had the money but keeps on getting on down the road
Great, we want update on that truck! Very nice video too, subscribed 😊
That's a great solid truck. Sometimes people will get rid of a vehicle, through frustration, because they couldn't get it to start and all they probably needed was a new set of points.
It it really nice to see a young man with a man's hair cut interested in this type of thing. Your probably a hunter.
What
Hell yeah!!!!! She has a whole new life brother!!! Great job!!! I love seeing this
Awesome video ! Thank you !!
Nice old truck!!
Awesome video mate thanks for sharing your story another one saved Wayne Perth Australia
Wow this motor sounds good. These old American made vehicles are simply indestructible! I drive a 74 Dodge Superior with the 440 v8 and it sat in a field for years and started right up after priming the carburetor. I've been driving it daily since for two years and it even sounds like this
When I seen that big IH I just couldn't pass by.
Whenever you're bringing one back from the dead, fill the carburetor Bowl on the initial startup through the vent. Disconnect the fuel line and put on a fresh Supply.
Crank and enjoy
If it gives you a hard time poor a little oil down its gullet it boosts compression.
Or as you found out start playing with the ignition.😅
SUCSESS ! I SEEN IT .. CANT BELIVE THAT WORKED 😳. And you discovered how AIR BREAKS work. I would take the IH Tractor and junk the truck.
Thanks 👍
Keep the truck tractor
your kidding right if not then you need to do a little learning on what makes a good truck. these were some of the best work trucks ever made and you can take that to the bank just about all ihc equiptment was at the top of the food chain.
@@ozarkmike735 it’s hard to find parts for them, sadly. If you do find them, parts are super expensive. They were beautiful trucks. Like everything else, few people ever really appreciate them and care for them like they deserve. Nice truck tractor.
@@marthagomez7335 ill agree if you dont know what your looking for parts can be difficult to obtain but i daily drive a 67 loadstar with a 345 as a work truck for example the carrier bearing needs replaced they will tell you that particular bearing is no longer available what they dont know is the bearing is available with a different bolt pattern so all i have to do is re work the mount a presta bearing is available after all i rebuilt a ihc 196 a few years ago and everyone would swear up and down that parts were hard to find. well not really if you knew each and every part with the right dimensions individually. thats the problem with most so called mechanics if they cant get it in a kit they give up and say its impossible
incredibly sporty. What a lovely truck!
An International holding an International!! Truck looks pretty complete and not bad shape!!
0:44 oh I REALLY like the body lines and stance of that truck! That one I’d be proud to repower and keep in my fleet!
It needs a Maxx force diesel swapped in
Got to love old school technology . I love the old trucks
With all those pines what part of the south are you in? Some folks have all the luck. Sure wish I could find something like that. Is the body in decent shape? Sounds like it runs good and no smoking. Some new tires and a little fixing up and you will have a good truck.
Love this adventure. If you try this at home; bring plenty of fire extinguishers. Expect the carb to leak like a sieve, rodents to have chewed on the wiring, the exhaust to leak in all the wrong places. Expect the clutch to be froze and the brakes locked up, no oil where there should be and water where there shouldn’t.
That truck is in better shape than most of the brand new trucks nowadays
What's the status of this truck as of now Jan 2024? More videos of this trucks progress please!
That’s awesome. Keep the videos coming. Thanks for sharing.
Yeah, nothing like burping gas fumes for 3-4 days afterwards. Just glad I wasn't a smoker
Great subject (very old truck) great video (Detailed, but not overly) and congratulations on geting it running. Sounds wonderful! Would make a good, "Bombing around the property doing work stuff" vehicle.
Old skool R series from back then. Was still a popular truck when IH discontinued the model.
