Well I had been shopping around for an old late 1940"s to early 1950"s Pickup and today I found what fit the bill!

This morning, like every morning, I was searching the advertisements on Craigslist and came across this old 1952 International Harvester L-120 3/4 Pickup. As it was nearby, I went over and looked at it between classes. Its a straight old truck that wasn't abused. Granted there are some dents, but not really a lot of rust issues. The Box is in great shape and so is the cab, the floors are solid! It has the OHV 220 Six Cylinder with 60,000 miles and a Four speed on the floor. I was able to drive it around where it was parked, and it drove good. Just have to pump the breaks twice to stop! The trucks only option, the heater, even blows hot! It also has a new battery in it.
I gave $1100 for it, not to bad I think. The seller wanted $1500.

Anyways, I hope you enjoyed the story and the pictures!

I will post more when I get the truck home this weekend.

Thanks for reading!

The best place on the 'net to find folks who know and love these old trucks is www.oldihc.org .

My first car ride ever was when they brought me home from the hospital in a '52 L-110 1/2-ton pickup truck...so I've developed quite an emotional attachment to these ol' Binder trucks.
 
My dad had a 1953, quite a workhorse on the farm. I even went on my first date in it. If I could have keep it...
 
That is an awesome find! What are your plans for it? I'd love to find a truck like that, restore it, and then use it to haul my C to shows. Very cool!
 
I will work on it slowly and just have fun with it. Once I get the breaks working properly, I plan on taking it to shows and show it off!

Thanks!
