My 1946 International K-1

[Ellington]

I haven't posted much on here but have looked around a lot and thought I would post some pictures of my somewhat rare project. It's a 1946 (titled as a 47) International k-1 pickup with a factory flat bed that my father in law gave me. His dad bought it in Southern California from the military at some point. Not sure when though. It is going to be a slow build like any other project time and money is a factor.

It has a flat head straight six with a 3 on the tree shift. I don't think I will use this setup because to get the motor running it is going to be way expensive. It hasn't run since 1980. My plan is to put a mustang2 frontend on it. Put a sbc and 700r4 trans combo with a narrowed ford 9 inch. As for the flatbed part i am unsure about it. Don't know if I want to find a bed for it or stick with a flatbed. I have some time to think on that one. Here are some pictures.
