1940 International D-2 Custom Pickup

Description

This is the kind of truck that instantly gets your mind working. You just know how cool you'll look as the only one to show up in a 1940 International Harvester D-2. With extras like an enhanced 350 V8 and air conditioned interior, who knew such distinction could be this affordable?

The D-2 has a cool Art Deco design, flowing fenders, and a rounded split-window cab. So you know it's a pickup of distinction the moment you show up to everywhere from the car show to the hardware store. We love the details on this one, including original pieces like the badge on the front and how the trim wraps around the entire front end. Plus, there's the addition of American Racing Torq thrust wheels that have been painted a textured black to match the body. International was solidly in fourth place truck sales for 1940 behind The Big Three, and so you'll be hard pressed to see another D-2 anywhere you go.

Inside is a full custom interior that retains much of the International's workman charm, but now it's also updated with plenty of modern conveniences. The black bench seat does a great job of being comfy while also coordinating with the rest of the dark interior. You'll slip behind the Grant sports steering wheel, and your left hand will instantly gravitate towards the Lokar shifter. This pickup is built to comfortably get you to your destination, so there's an AM/FM/CD stereo, full AutoMeter gauge package, and modern R134a air conditioning to keep you cool while looking cool behind the wheel.

International Harvester made some fine engines, but when you want nice power and parts availability, nothing beats a Chevy crate small block like what's currently under the hood. The 350 cubic-inch V8 looks nice in the engine bay with its polished alternator and valve covers. Plus, the Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor and intake add to the V8's power punch. It even gives a nice sound out of the dual exhaust that tells the world about its muscle without being too boisterous. An independent front suspension borrowed from a Camaro, power steering, front disc brakes, and a TH350 three-speed automatic transmission completes this reliable and comfortable package. So your classic International is truly a great any time machine.

Here's a nice presentation of a pickup that's already a rarity for most people to see today. That makes it a very unique package. And once you check out the affordable price, you know you have to hurry if you want to take it home. Call today!!!
