Gateway Classic Cars of Milwaukee presents this 1951 International Harvester L-110 Series 1/2 ton pick up truck.

The International Harvest story starts in 1902 in Chicago, IL. Originally founded as a farm equipment company IH got into the truck game early. By 1907 they were building trucks for farm and commercial use alike. International had a great reputation for making reliable apparatus including trucks, tractors, lawn mowers, refrigeration units and heavy-duty farm equipment. The truck division had been well known and competed with other heavy hitters like Mack and Diamond T for big trucks and light duty trucks like Ford, GM and Dodge. By the 1960s IH was even building more passenger type trucks like the Scout and Travelall. After the 1980 model year International moved their focus to heavy duty trucks and the era of IH passenger trucks came to an end.

Our featured truck is from the 1951 model year. This L-110 series truck shows well in its tri-tone black, red, and white paint scheme that is a nod to the International Harvest logo. Powering this handsome classic truck is a 220 cubic inch inline six-cylinder motor teamed up to a 3-speed column shifted transmission. The vehicle has had several upgrades to make a more pleasant driving experience including power steering, a 12-volt electronic system, JVC stereo system, SunPro gauges, and Uniroyal Tiger Paw tires mated to Ion Alloy 15-inch rims. The truck also features a Rhino sprayed bed liner, tow hitch and diamond plate roll pan style rear bumper. The truck also has an interesting styling cue with a split rear window and a double hinged piano style opening hood.
