Re: Some body was

My grandfather had one of those 1938 Internationals that I (and my Dad) inherited when he passed.
Top speed was 34 MPH. With the ultra low gearing, 3 speed manual and that flat top inline 6, it would pull huge amount of weight without a struggle. We took huge loads of firewood out of the Maine woods with that truck.
6V positive ground electrical system was a bit strange to work on, and it wouldn't always start in the really cold weather up there, but was still a great truck.
