Anybody else like these? Modern classic, I think...

Post by nuhobby »

These last 3-4 years only once in a while do I see one of these going by. I'm always struck, it's like a Viking Ship going down the highway. International LoneStar:

Sweet! My dad worked for IH and owned an IH farm dealership later on, so I've always had a preference for anything International.

My wife's step brother use to own 1979 IH Golden Eagle, at the time it was the prettiest truck. After 3 million miles he got a Peterbuilt, another 5 million miles and he retired to sell cars.

That is one fine looking truck in that picture.

I jambed gears in the late 60's early 70's before and just after I got married. I owned a Mack and Peterbuilt.

Had an uncle that worked as a tool and die maker for IH. Good trucks ...

That looks kind of like it belongs in Hong Kong to me LOL. Nice truck, but a bit gaudy for my taste.
