Pullstart 62,881 #1 Posted January 5 Does anyone recognize this pickup bed, by the shape, fenders, anything? I was helping Grandpa pick up a “new” trailer the other day and came upon this old pickup bed trailer. It caught my eye, along with some other rusty junk… 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
953 nut 55,229 #2 Posted January 5 My guess would be a mid 1930s International, most others had a more pronounced teardrop shaped rear fender. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That is one of those Power Wagons that has an aftermarket modification that cut the frame in half and put a heavy duty pivot that allowed the frame to twist, giving large amounts of up and down wheel motion. Positraction differentials caused some funky handling issues. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
