1957 International Truck in Houston, Texas

Vehicle Description

Up for sale in our Houston Showroom is this 1957 International Harvester Anniversary series truck. The International A-Series (or A-line) replaced the S-Series in April 1957. The name stood for "Anniversary", as 1957 marked the fiftieth (or Golden) anniversary of truck production by International Harvester. It was largely a rebodied version of the light and medium S-Series truck, incorporating a wide cab and more integrated fenders. The International Harvester Company (now known as Navistar International Corporation) was a United States manufacturer of agricultural machinery, construction equipment, trucks, and household and commercial products. In 1902, J.P. Morgan merged the McCormick Harvesting Machine Company and Deering Harvester Company, along with three smaller agricultural equipment firms, to form International Harvester. This one has been completely restored into the custom show truck you see here today. Seen wearing a glossy black paint job with some vibrate multicolored flames that drape the hood & fenders that streak down the doors. The finish of the truck is high quality and shows very well inside the showroom as well as out in the sunshine! This custom truck has been lowered to give it a mean sleek stance. The chromed grill & bumpers really make this truck stand out and give it a unique appearance. It sits on some 5-star Boss 18-inch wheels that are wrapped in tires that have plenty of life left on them. Powering this beauty is a 355 CiD V8 that features tuned port fuel injection. The engine bay is painted & finished with polished accessories throughout. Paired to the great sounding engine is a 700R4 4-speed automatic transmission that has a tall trucker style shifter mounted in the cab. The trans leads into a 10-bolt rear end spinning 3.42 gears. The engine has only 1050 miles on it & the transmission has less than 100 miles since they were rebuilt. Looking into the cab you will find a sexy red & black leather interior that is in near brand-new condition. The custom black painted dash & door panels really add that extra pop with the two-tone color combination. The truck has too many custom touches to list but the amount of detailed paint work is a nice touch. The truck has custom gauges, ice cold AC, keyless door popper entry with the custom shaved doors, side exhaust pipes, power steering, power brakes, leather interior, tilt steering wheel, & a whole lotta cool. This one can be yours if you act soon! For more information on this 1957 International Anniversary Truck call the Houston Showroom at 832-243-6220 or email houston@gatewayclassiccars.com
