we have a very active forum here that can help you with any TC info. Chrysler's TC by Maserati - Antique Automobile Club of America - Discussion Forums (aaca.org)

I would say aftermarket
-
Think the other one is for a Torino from about the same time. Early 70s

I spent my younger years working in farm country in West Texas in the 60's and 70's. Lots of IHC trucks and farmall tractors were used on the farms and the dealer network back then was really strong. International were known for toughness and dependability. You would be surprised how many are still in service during harvest season.

The first one is an early 50's model. I may be wrong but I believe they were registered by the motor number. A parts store may be able to look it up and ID the year if the motor is original to the truck. I think the red one is from the 60's. It gets tricky with IHC because they made mid year changes when improvements were made instead of waiting to year end. Interesting trucks to an old farm guy like me.

Post some pictures of the vehicle here so we can narrow down the age and model. That will help determine what it is to help narrow the search. Good luck.

Most interesting thing to me is it being a 1 ton chassis.

Interesting truck. I agree there should be a manufacturers plate somewhere that will tell you much. Usually on the dash or door frame area on the part built by the body maker, Do you have any interior shots that may have clues? Inside shots would be great. Grummon was another company that built lots of step in vans

We used some 8V batterys in farm trucks that were difficult to start. It worked well for some extra cranking power but not very friendly to light bulbs. Made them brighter but cut the lifetime.

What type of body parts?
-
I do not have the answer but maybe someone will know. I would guess it may be because it is a Canadian truck

As you have been advised in your previous post I am sure some people would be interested in helping you when you furnish information about the trucks condition. There is no way anyone can help without info and pictures to help determine exactly what you have. It is a very interesting find but details are a must to even begin. Please if you are really interested in a responce from anyone furnish all the details available to help determine a value.

I am sure several people here would love to help you including me when you start including info on your find. At minimum we need info on condition of the engine, drivetrain, body, milage and plenty of pictures showing views on the inside and out. Just give us something to start on and we will be glad to work with you .
-
That is an amazing find. Please keep us updated on the info you find.

Have you tried a IHC dealer. Many of them can get parts for older models. Those trucks stay in service for many years May not be cheap, but may be the best chance

Good looking truck.

Probably wrong, but it has a 49 Hudson look to me.

My first was a 55 chevy pickup that my dad had used in the oilfield. It was very used but it got me where I needed to go thru two years of high school. 6 cylinder and 3 0n the tree.

If you know anyone who is familliar with trucks it would be good to have them look at your truck. also you can take the info on its ID plate to your local IH dealer. They can tell you everything from that. That would be easiest way

Looks like a big project, Will need a lot of info on the truck. Is it gas or diesel, what transmission , air brakes or other, what rear end does it have. How about the suspension? This size truck is usually built to the buyers specs. and there are many configurations possible. The first step is figuring our exactly what you have, then you can start putting together a plan. Good luck on your ptoject and keep us informrd on your progress.

The missing tag in the location you described would most likely would have been for the motorhome body in that location. The IH id would be attached to the part supplied by IH. You might check with someone familiar with school buses for info on the tag location for chassis shipped without bodies. Most likely locations would be the firewall or possibly the glove box area.

Wishing you a speedy recovery. Hope to see you back here soon

Depends on the body builder. Who manufactured the delivery box? Most I have seen used a seat that would pivot out of the way to make more access to the back
