Video couldn't have been more timely. Just bought a 67 1600 and I am planning a lot of the same upgrades. Can't wait to see it.
Right on. I think it’s going to be a sweet truck
Gonna be an awesome build brother. Can't wait.
Should be fun
Man this is one hell of a project. Yeah deleting the widow maker tires is a must. I see buses w em all the time on FB when I was rly looking at busses. Would I have to swap an axle to get rid of em? You should try to use the engine, & wiring harness from the bus the axles are coming out of.
Engine that’s in the bus I have sold I think and it would be just as much work to do the t444e engine from the bus as a Cummins and the 12v is a lot simpler.
On the bus thing it depends on what bus you get. I am not sure the year they switched to hub pilots wheels but I would be looking for those. Much easier to work with
Those aren’t split rims just 5 spoke daytons. Those rims aren’t that bad to deal with only thing is loosen up the spokes and drive it around or hook up a chain and forklift to pull the tires off. They aren’t deadly if you still use precautions.
New Scriber! Good looking truck for the age. Thinking of doing a 8.1 swap, lowering somewhat, and converting into a “Tailgating/Cookoff” Truck.
thats be cool i want this one to tow a 48foot race trailer
Front axle air ride can be really sketchy trying to get the front end to work together. Plus driving down the road it will be all over the place. Making turns at any speed will make you feel like your going to roll over. Ran a front air ride truck and found out the hard way that it causes your tires to wear and chop up really bad. Alignments always going to be all over the place because the air bags never return to the same exact spot. Not saying that air ride is bad but I’m more of a type of guy to drop a body over and use air bags to raise and lower everything rather than a suspension air ride. But yes air ride in the rear is the way to go
I am going set it up like a semi so it will have a mono leaf with a i bag to add lift. I have done a few air ride suspensions. I have had the pains of learning as well lol.
But I have couple idea as well. If it doesn’t work the way I want to will just redo. Just makes for more videos
@@CUTTERUPROB good way to look at it. Good luck with your projects
I've got a 1968 international L 1800 with only 7,686 actual miles. It was a fire truck and had no rust with a 392 that purrs like a kitten. Been having trouble deciding what I'm going to do with it. Had a five speed with single speed rear end. Has a heavy rear axle for hauling water tank.
I think this one is going to end up on a 2015 ford f550 frame
I enjoy your videos . There was a company i think that builds international trucks that has pick up beds and flat beds to tow with. I like to have a 4 door truck that is low profile may be 19.5 aluminum wheels and a dt 466 that is inner cooled p pump . i prefer a manual and air brakes . . Air ride would be great especially to level up the load . Look forward to your build . I wondering how the allison shift strategy will be as far as lock up and shifting . i had given some thought in doing the allison conversion and using the ATS bell housing designed to fit the stock starter location and i guess there stand along controller in my 95 but i went with the g56 . For towing .
I am not a big fan of the dt466 myself. Don’t get me wrong they work but just not my cup of tea. My left knee likes it a lot better when it doesn’t have a clutch to push. So that’s part of it. The company I was talking with was ( Allison Cummins conversation) just use there whole kit for the swap and I can tune just about everything the way I want it to be.
OK the cummins Allison I considered it for a bit . I think ATS makes bell housing or whatever it is to mate up so the starter right and not required grinding or that's what I was told ..your going to do a 5 or six speed . There was a company that built bad ass pick up bed International truck. My truck has a dt466 13 speed air brakes p pump. 50 k original miles . Its a winch truck . . Look forward to the build . I been looking for a International truck a 4 door low profile ect to use for a toy hauler. Thanks for your videos
I was just wondering how you were planning on doing the sheet metal for the firewall? I saw a guy that was doing some mods on a FJ40 and he used a steel wheelbarrow to extend his firewall back into the cab. It looked real clean...
I will build removable panels and a frame to bolt them too. That way it easy to work on
👍👍will b an interesting build man👍👍.. gonna be kick ass when it's finished for sure...have got a rust free '53 IH pick up down here,(forget the model)..with a 6 cyl gas,that I'd like to frame swap some day..but,one project at a time..but anyway 👍👍
Cool. Ya I need to get the shorty done so I can start work on this lol
This video popped up and didn't see any updates. I was really looking forward to see the progress. Did you give up?
Nope I am working on finding all the parts. I am hoping to start on it this winter.
I like it. I'd love to build one of those into a 4x4 service truck, maybe f550 chassis. Are you planning to put a flatbed on it?
It will be just a bob tail to start with. But I have some cool ideas for later
If you wanted to keep it as a work truck, how do you think a 6.9 or 7.3 IDI would work if you stuck with the original trans and differential? I would think being a V-8 diesel they might bolt in easier and require less mods to install. I think international used them in the school buses in the mid to late 80s.
I want to run the truck all over the place pulling a 40ft open trailer and in a couple years buy a 48-53 foot enclosed race trailer. So I need the thing up to the task. I feel better with the newer diffs / newer trans auto trans and a good old reliable 12v Cummins
I would take that 304 off your hands if you want to get rid of it. Same engine as my wife's Scout I believe. Could use some parts or core to rebuild.
Friend of mine wants it as it stands but if it changes I will let you know in a later video
Thanks
Just curious as to why not a 4 or 5 speed Allison like in a bluebird or something... don't matter
They don’t like to hold power ( I know this will end up making 500-600 at the wheels ) that and the final gear ratio in the 6 speeds are better
They were good trucks but you would freeze your ass off driving into the wind in winter
I am going to put a vintage air, heating and air conditioning unit
But your right they were a cold truck to drive in.
I'd love to chat with you, I'm building a crew cab international at the moment with a 12 valve. I need engine upgrade info as this is my first cummins.

Any updates?
I am just gathering parts for it. I will be doing it. Just some other projects and life has got in the way
