1944 International Harvester Other

This is a 1944 International Tow truck that a friend has had for years, it currently is not running but is on a non op. We used this old truck on many adventures and had a great time with it but it's time for it to go to a new home. Itsuffered a bent push rod due to running old gas and letting it set causing an intake valve to stick. The rocker shaft was removed and the pushrod replaced but a few days later we found that the rockers were not oiling due to being put together wrong and caused damage. Also included is a 48 parts truck that has all or most of the parts to fix it, you may take parts or the whole truck. The tow truck body is in real good shape with no rust, the brakes will need to be looked at and the tires are probably out of round from setting. This truck was built during the war so it has no chrome and a few other odd things, the boom looks home made but is a good job, the PTO winch works good. It's powered by a 6cyl OHV gas engine with a 5spd and a stick operated 2spd rear end. not sure of actual millage.
