1974 International Harvester model 200 pickup truck with utility body

1974 International Harvester model 200, «heavy 3/4-ton» pickup truck Has legendary IH 345 V8 commercial truck engine. Has Morrison utility body with 6 locking compartments, a full 50″ by 8′ bed that allows you to haul sheet goods with the tailgate closed, and a step bumper with towing hitch. The custom ladder rack is 13″ long, has an 8′ tray to hold shorter items, and holds a lot of weight. 123K miles, decent rubber, clear title, service paperwork back to the 90s. I even have the owner’s manual and line setting ticket. Chrysler 727 auto transmission fully rebuilt about 5K miles back at a professional transmission shop. Starts and runs fine but in need of a full carburetor cleaning—I haven’t done that b/c I figure the buyer is likely to replace the carb with a more efficient fuel injection system. I recently replaced fuel lines and filter, performed oil change, top cylinder lubrication and some other basics. Vintage truck but with modern conveniences like power steering, power brakes (anti-lock rear brakes), lap belts. and shoulder belts. —One of the last IH pickups made—they stopped making them in April 1975— Spent entire 42 years in Colorado (dry, and no road salt). Originally put into service as a mechanic’s truck for the USPS in Colorado Springs so they put on the utility body, a big custom «pusher» bumper up front, and elevated brake lights on the roof. Also mounted to the roof are a radio loudspeaker, a CB antenna, and a spinning yellow light. One-of-a-kind truck with an interesting origin and in great condition. Ideal for a mobile mechanic, remodeler, or handyman who wants to show up in style with a distinctive service vehicle unlike anyone else’s out there. If you want to put a standard pickup bed on it or make into a flatbed, I will sell as «cab-and-chassis» (minus the utility body and ladder rack) for less. I would also sell without the overhead ladder rack for $100 less—that would restore the configuration back to a mechanic’s truck like the post office originally had it in 1974.
