1946 International Harvester K1M Metro Van Divco Milk Truck Patina Rat Rod

1946 International Harvester 1946 K1M Metro Van NO RESERVE!!! Description

*NO RESERVE AUCTION* HIGH BID TAKES IT!* 1946 IH Metro K1M. Very rare. Metros of this vintage are nearly impossible to find for sale. This one already has a cool rat rod look to it. Just need to get it running and enjoy it. It has the roll up or "magic" rear door that can only be found on the earliest metros. This one does not have a title and I never attempted to get it running but the engine seems to be free and complete. It's a 1/2 ton version and has the 5 bolt lug pattern as opposed to the big 6 pattern most metros have. I put the saw blades on it and the tires are in good shape with great tread (included in sale). This van was at one time a dry cleaning delivery vehicle as I was barely able to decode from the graphics on the passenger side. It has rust areas and some filler but is structurally solid and could be made into a driver with little effort. I have gone through and removed all the moisture trapping dirt and debris which is what causes these vans to rust out in the same general areas. As you can see in the pictures, the rusted areas have been exposed and cleaned of debris. The listing picture was modified to give the van a lowered appearance to show just how cool it could look. AGAIN, NO RESERVE. GOOD LUCK! I reserve the right to end the listing early if it sells outside of ebay, so bid early if you want a shot at this one as I do have interest locally as well. I can be reached at five-oh-three-550-9018 if you have any questions. If I don't answer leave a call back number and I will follow up soon after. Thanks!
