Nice truck for the money...

Ad text;
have for sale a 1953 international r-180. It has a running 282 black diamond straight 6 engine, carburetor freshly rebuilt and fresh oil/filter, a 5speed transmission with a 2 speed rear end. Also has a dump body. I replaced every brake component from the master cylinder to the wheel cylinders and brake shoes, Truck stops just fine. Body has a few spots that could use attention or leave it the way it is with a great patina look to it. Frame is in excellent condition looks like the day it left the dealer. The interior is just a basic farm truck interior no carpets or door panels just a vinyl seat that is in great shape. Overall decent truck, needs minimal work, would make an easy winter project. I can drive it right onto whatever you come pick it up with. No air brakes so truck does not require a CDL license, I do not have a title as Ct does not require one on vehicles over 25 years old. It is currently registered and insured in Ct. I am asking $2000 but am negotiable. Come see it and hear it run in person. Call Enzo at 860940161four

Where there is a will there is a way! Check out rental companies that rent backhoes and excavators, etc. they rent trailers that are big enough to haul anything. That's how how I got my 8,000 lb Army truck home. Just make sure your tow vehicle can activate the electric brakes.

So I called the guy this am to throw in the towel. We had a long convo about his 5 other internationals and my previous ones. He said he appreciated me trying and letting him know that I couldn't make it. Well a few hours later, he text and said "No promises, but if I could deliver it, would you still be interested?" Sooooo now we just need to see what transpires. :t3717:
