Classic Cars is pleased to present this 1968 International C-series
half-ton Fleetside pickup truck optioned with power steering, power
brakes, automatic and SV V8 engine. Made in International?s
Springfield, Ohio factory, this truck was originally purchased in
dry Arizona and has been custom lowered with an attractive stance.
Wearing a cream-colored exterior and a neutral vinyl interior, this
truck shows a nice patina. Both doors wear a livery of Honolulu
Speed Shop, established 1968. The truck?s bodywork is straight, the
engine bay is tidy, the paint is in good, original shape while the
cargo area?s patina is a level more wear than that of the rest of
the body. There?s a flat black front bumper and a silver corrugated
metal rear bumper. This truck rides on older wide whitewall tires,
size 205/70R15 at every corner and each tire is mounted on red
steelies without wheel covers. It has a 118-inch wheelbase and a
4,200 GVWR. Under the hood is International?s Comanche 266 CID V-8
engine (code SV-266). Nineteen sixty-eight was the last model year
for this V-8. The motor is mated to a three-speed automatic
transmission. Driver convenience features include power steering
and power brakes. Inside, a hula doll, a bamboo headliner and a
Mexican blanket over the bench seat set the surfing theme. The
bench seat, black floor mats, two-spoke steering wheel and the rest
of the interior are all in good, original order. Whimsical touches
include a die atop the radio aerial and four more on the tire valve
caps. Completing the interior are a column-mounted shift and the
truck?s original factory AM radio but the horn is inoperable. Truck
competition to this International in 1968 included Chevrolet?s C10,
Dodge?s D100, Ford?s F100, GMC?s C10 and Jeep?s Gladiator pickup
trucks. If this truck appeals to you as is, it will turn heads and
start conversations at any cruise night or car show it attends.
Alternatively, you could use it as the foundation for something
different ? keep it as is as shop truck, or it could be the basis
for a camper or a drag truck. Stop by MotoeXotica Classic Cars
