Looking for a working tow truck to either complete your collection
or offer assistance in style when one of your four-wheeled children
throws a tantrum and breaks down? Take a look at this 1931
International-Harvester A2 1.5-ton tow truck. This truck has
benefitted from an extensive restoration and carries a Weaver Auto
Crane, ultra-rare Weaver Auto Ambulance Dolly and a working
emergency beacon. The International A-2 was introduced in 1931, was
a 1.5 ton rated truck boasting great styling seen on all the
A-series tucks. The list of standard features was impressive, as
these vehicles were now equipped to get the toughest of all jobs
completed! Made during June 1931, this truck is dressed a R. J. and
Sons Garage ?Mechanical First Aid and Towing? livery in
International Dark Green with custom pinstriping over black wings
while the crane and dolly are painted in a contrasting light green.
The paint and trim on this truck are in overall very good order.
From its Boyce Motometer on the radiator to the auto dolly, the
bodywork is straight and solid, including the fold-down windshield;
the engine bay is extremely tidy; and the rear business area looks
great for its age. Up front is a brown, wooden front bumper that
would make a great surface with which to push-start a car. This
truck has a 136-inch wheelbase, a 7,500 GVWR and carries a
15-gallon fuel tank under the bench seat, along with a red
undercarriage. Other, period-correct accessories include an extra
hand crank to start vehicles (especially those lacking a keyed
ignition), a lantern and a two-gallon extra fuel tank. This truck
rolls on Firestone gum-dipped, High Speed balloon tires, size
6.00-20 at all four corners. Each tire is mounted to a steel wheel
that is painted bright red and offers further contrast to the body
colors. The wheels are in excellent order while the tires are in
very good shape. Under the vee?d hood is a XAH 6B 186 CID Waukesha
L-head four-cylinder engine #284063, mated to a four-speed sliding
gear manual transmission. Inside, the black bench seat is in
overall great shape and is mounted over the truck?s fuel tank.
There are black floor mats in place of carpeting (this was a work
truck, remember) and there?s no roof so there?s no headliner. The
four-spoke black steering wheel looks great. The dark green metal
instrument panel has a full array of gauges and appears in very
good order, as do the metal inner door liners. A floor-mounted
shift lever extends from the transmission hump. This is a rare find
and one that should delight any collector ? whether they collect
trucks, International-Harvester vehicles or the collector who hunts
for eclectic, unusual pieces. Stop by MotoeXotica Classic Cars
