Truck Indentity Please....

Post by wayneswirld2 »

Buddy of mine found this truck rotting away in an abandoned field, and I may be able to get my hands on it for little of nothing. I'm pretty certain that it's an International, but other than that assumption I don't know what it is. I haven't made the drive down to put my eyeballs on it yet, but he says it looks pretty solid for the most part.

Any ideas as to what it is?

Its a late 40s to early 50s Studebaker pickup I believe. Looks like a good truck though. I always liked Studes. :Thumbsup

Thanks for the help, I'm going to try and narrow down who the owner might be in the next week or so and see what it'll take to pry it outta his hands. Looks like it might be a 1953.

It could be a 48 to 53, they looked alike during those years.
