Just passing this along...there is a 1960 IH Metro Mite for sale near me for $300. It is in Griffin, Ga. Looks to be pretty rough though. Here is what the Facebook ad says.
"Does not run, is complete with running gear, very rough and rare
Parts or restore" 6786166730 https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=1000235409987788&set=pcb.840897115998337&type=1&theater

I don't know if that link will work or not.

I wonder if anyone is restoring this model because they look so much like any of the other curbside delivery vans. The original Metro has the style that sets it apart. I think that one's restoration dollars could be better spent on a vehicle that looks like an IHC. If the seller says rough, I would guess that it is really bad.

By the engine, which looks to be the Austin A-40 that makes it an AM80. Definately a survivor and pretty "rare".
