Well here is my dads 1963 International 1200 Series. Its got a straight six and it's all wheel drive. It was originally a fire truck that burnt up in a grass fire. (Kinda ironic) He took off all of the fire equipment, and just made it an original pickup. The things a tank. Just thought some people might like it. And dad might like some of the comments it gets.

as a car customizer, I can honestly say that that is a very buitiful truck, I knwo the pain it is to restore one, and to do that to such an obsolete vehicle is even better, excellent job on that!!

Thanks for all the compliments, I'm showing dad this when he gets back from Indianapolis tonight. Also I'll have him find some old pics and pics during the restore. It's not perfect but it's close. He has a small scratch on the side from unloading it off of the trailer during the move. The drivers window has a crack, but has another thats perfect that he hasn't put on. He still needs to put the headliner in. He's gonna be happy!
