I also had to shorten the muffler on this one. I used to top stack from the Autocar but switched it so it would stick out past the dump body.

Looking good. I may have to pick a International up.

Thanks you know these International’s have not been reissued in a long time and are hard to find plus they can be very pricey. I picked mine up on eBay several years ago and it was pricey then.

I’ve finished the interior plus a look at what’s under the hood. I had to respray the cab burn through to many places to let it go.   |

While I’m waiting on the cab paint to dry and my tires for the rear I’ve started working on the Autocar with the dump body that came with the International. Check out my new posting.

Coming along nicely! Bummer about the paint. I was thinking a reissue International kit.  |

Thanks guys I appreciate your comments. Your correct about the dispatcher by the time I’m finished building it I’ll probably have over 10 trucks in the fleet. I will have one shelf dedicated just for the fleet.
