1960 B110 New Member

How is everyone,
i was just doing some research on my new truck and came across this forum so hoping to get info on what i have (since i cant find anything). Well to the important stuff this is what i know about it, is a 1960 b110 stepside has a straight six (not sure of which one) has three speed on the column, and is a peach color which looks original? please if you know something let me know maybe about what motor i might have or if paint is really this color ? i will get engine bay pictures once i can.

Looks like the Coral Pink offered that year. TCP Global has a paint library online where you can put in year and make and then look at paint chips.

Welcome to the site.
I'm guessing your truck has one of the rarer colors. i don't remember seeing it before.
I think you'll find lots of information and helpful people here.
Nice truck.

Hey there. I've got an A120. Similar to your B series, so I've been down at least part of the road you're heading down.

As far as your engine, there should be a flat spot on the right side of the block toward the front (manifold side) that will have the engine size and type stamped on it. You might have to scrape a little grease to find it.

Welcome to the site, ask lots of questions!

An IH paint chart...

To really know what your truck is equipped with, I strongly suggest getting a copy of it's "LINE SETTING TICKET" which is a list of specifications/options each truck came off the line with. The LST makes using the IH parts manuals much easier and removes the guess work.

This link has a basic description of the LST and it's use.

Where to buy a copy (last known price $20.00 US);

You can get new licensed reprints of IH manuals here;
http://www.binderbooks.com/1958-1963%20 ... Series.htm

You can also get LST copies from them too,but they get them from the WHS.
From the WHS I know of forum members who have ordered them via phone and had it within 1 week.

Here's what an LST looks like (basically)


Hope this helps.

Hey, nice to see another B110 owner here. You might already have seen mine but here is the link to a youtube video I made of a recent drive.

Your truck should have the engine size , serial number, gvw, information all on the i.d. plate on the end of the driver door. If the plate is missing then the engine size and number will be on the upper end of the block just below the exhaust manifold. That's where all my IH trucks have them. Mine has the "big six", the 264, and it is a power house for sure. I call mine a 59 model but according to what I read in one IH book, it might be a 60. Apparently the 1960 models had the argent (gold) colored IH symbol in the front ornament and mine has that. Anybody else heard of this? 59s wee silver according to the book.

Did you lower that truck? The front end sure sits low compared to any IH pickup I have ever seen.

Hi, Ralph
I thought argent was a bright silver? I can't think of another name for gold.
For those of us who are my age Argent is also a 70s rock band. "Ride, Captain, Ride?"
Just wondering, thanks, Don

Welcome to the site. Great truck! Where are you located?

My 58 has a gold IH symbol on the front. It has been rebuilt after a wreck at some point, so might not be OEM.
