  1. I believe it is stamped on the passenger side frame rail just in front of the cowl.
  2. Wonder how many miles he is planning to get out of those tires?

  4. Are you sure it is an 80 seriese and not the 800? Also is it 4x4? What is the condition overall? These things are very important to the value of the Scout. There is some extra value to a turbo and the champaign package if it is an overall good vehicle. This is assuming it is an International also.
  5. Just last week we were shopping for a small car for my wife. Nothing fancy, just a 2 to 4 year old low mileage ride she could depend on for normal use to replace the problem child she was driving. After shopping several sources, we went to our local Chevy dealer. He was able to sell a brand new 2020 with full warranty and some extras for the same price as a comparable 2 year old car with 30000 miles. They have such a backup of new 2020's after the virus scare and year end deals, they were willing to make some deals. First new car I have bought in almost 50 years but it was way too good not to do it.
  6. If you have not done so, check with your local International truck dealer. It is amazing what they have access to or have a lead you can follow. Remember the K3 falls in to the heavier equipment side, so adjust your thinking toward that when looking for parts. Truck salvage yards may have what you need sitting in the back lot also.
  7. The hole is where the bolt goes that secured the heavy hubcap to the wheel. These wheel covers were used on several different Olds models and they would just use different inserts to match the car used on,
  8. If it is a 14inch, I think it goes to a mid 80s Cutlass supreme.
  9. Interesting mix of autos. Something for everyone. It does not take a lot of cars to have a good time.
  10. That was true for most makes of trucks even into the 1950s qnd 60s, even later. Ford ,Dodge, Chevy were like that too. The stock bumpers were not strong enough for heavy work and various needs of a truck owner, so they were made locally to fit the needs of the individual owner. Most trucks back then were work vehicles and very few were used for pleasure or family use.
  11. Try these guys. Look to the left of the page for a link to the K and KB section. Good luck with your project http://www.travelallparts.com/
  12. The woodie is based on a truck, which came with no bumper because most people buying a working vehicle wanted to build their own, or have a local shop fabricate what they needed, so not many stock bumpers were sold.
  13. Gmc and Chevy used the rectangle lights all thru the 40's and in to the early 50,s I do not believe they ever used a round one.
  14. Looks industrial or farm to me.
  15. It is not just the high end cars either. On our 08 Dodge Avenger, to my surprise, when I need a new battery, I had to pull the left front wheel off and remove a panel behind it to slide the battery out.
  16. I was lucky that my step-dad gave me my first ride. Not so lucky that it was a 55 chevy pickup that he had used in the oillfields until he could not depend on it any longer I kept it patched and running for a while then traded it in on a 60 Renault because I had a paper route and needed something easy on gas.
  17. Not a lot of detail to work on in the picture, but it probably be a Cambridge or a Cranbrook
  18. Your K 3 should have a 3 speed synchromesh transmission, so if nothing has been modified, any K series transmission should give what you need. I do not see where International used a 4 speed in this series, but is possible it was an option
  19. If it is a 3 speed International transmission it should be a synchromeshed transmission. What transmission do you have?
  20. Not sure about these cars, but some vehicles have a warning sound if there is a burned out bulb. Might be sure all the bulbs that turn on with that switch are functioning.
  21. Missing teeth on the flywheel? Starter can not engage when the flywheel stops where the teeth are missing. Just makes a grinding sound. Please repost the pictures. They did not show. Would love to see the truck.
  22. I love that truck. They are great and easy to work on. I had a 69 Dodge truck for many years. The only reason I sold it was because of our move across country. Although I am sure it would have driven there just fine, I had our personal vehicles and a motor home to take so something had to stay behind. I sold it to friend who kept it several more years with it giving him good service.
  23. I do not think he is thinking about a rollback. At 17,000 the question to my thinking would be has the truck been driven over the mechanical limit of the odometer. If well maintained it could look very presentable at 117,000 miles but would have signs of much more wear.
  24. The Beverly Hillbillies always used Chrysler Corp. cars. Mostly red Dodge or Plymouth convertables and an occasional Chrysler or Imperial.
