1952 International Harvester Other Base Description

1952 IHC L120 pickup truck. This is a great old truck from dry west Texas that gets more thumbs up than a red Ferrari! I purchased this nice this old western girl 3 years ago, no rust-through anywhere, no rust on the frame, lots of old black paint underneath the truck, even the area around the front marker lights under the headlights is rust-free where most of these trucks rust! Check out how little wear is on the bed and tailgate, this truck was used very lightly its entire life. Cool patina, warn but not rough its blue paint is a re-paint maybe 25 years old, with very little left on the tops of the fenders hood and roof, what’s left shins to a nice satin sheen when buffed out. This was my father/son project and Dad and I have done some mechanical work and replaced a few items to bring her to this extremely reliable, safe, fun vehicle to own. The brakes are new with good brake lines and master cylinder, repacked front wheel bearings, 5 new radial tires, we replaced the 4:10 rear-end gears with 3:73 so she travels safely and comfortably on country roads or the highway at 55-60 mph. The front end and steering is tight and she drives down the road straight with-out effort! The engine starts easily and purrs like a kitten with no smoking, the clutch and transmission work great.
