Years ago around 1987 my girlfriends father, he was in his sixties then her only 16 had a old international load star with a heavy steel bed, must have been early 70s model, he had bed custom made, he tore down houses, think it had a 400 ci engine, anyways he sent it over to haul off some gigantic pine logs I cut, we loaded them with large diesel fork lift, I road to dump logs driver climbed very steep hill only going mabe 30 miles per hour and never took it out of 3rd gear, truck ran almost another decade.
Nice old truck! Glad to see she's still being used. Does it have two winches or two seperate drums? Because it looks like you are pulling two sets of logs independently in the beginning of the video. I'd like to see more of this truck working. Thanks
Damn that looks heavy

Cool video. I was wondering if there is there a clear video on the loading the logs process?
i do have the raw video but i think u would find it boring.
@@mjwdrones4all41 Thanks for responding. I am looking into picking up an old flatbed dump truck and am looking for ways to load logs.
Nice old truck.
Minneapolis Moline 1955 still works but has many hrs
Your dog is adorable

There are 2 one at the rear under bed and one at front both can lift bed or pull logs. Dose take couple minutes to set up using pulleys.
@@mjwdrones4all41 Thanks for the info and quick reply.
What kind of backhoe was that?
I love your international.i hope it's going to get a fresh coat of paint
Nice color
I like the dog
