My 1929 International AC 1-1/2 ton truck was previously owned by my father.  My father, living life in Delta Junction, Alaska; 100 miles southeast of Fairbanks in a small community of 2,000 folks, would drive the old truck into town to his roadside business where he sold handmade diamond willow walking sticks and canes. The old truck was used as transportation, an advertising gimmick, display stand, and storage for product inventory. At the end of the day he would drive back to his log home and work late into the night making more inventory.

My father passed away in 2007. The old truck as been in my garage ever since. In January of 2024, with the help of Lynn Zellmer, my son Cody, wife Barb, guidance from VCCA member Beachbum, #5663, and other contributors of knowledge, I am making progress to get the old truck’s engine running again.

Sometime in the coming days of mid 2024 it should be drivable. I will post a new image once it is drivable.
