1969-1975 International Pickup Box "Super Center Floor" 1970 1971 1972 1973 1974

Description

This listing is for an International Harvester 8 foot "Styleside" pickup box assembly that is missing the tail gate. This type of box was used on some full size pickups as well as some of the Travelette 4 door vehicles built from later 1969 through the middle of 1975 when the production of International pickups was discontinued forever.
I saved this box a while ago because the 50 inch or so wide corrugated floor center section is as close to perfect as one might ever hope to find without finding a box that was taken off of a truck back when it was new. This corrugated floor center section has absolutely no rusted out spots or any significant damage to speak of.
As you can see in some of the photos, the right side outer panel has some significant damage and may not be easy to repair. There are no rusted out spots in either wheel well or in any part of this box from the back of the wheel wells ahead. The small floor side panels behind each of the fender wells have some rust holes at the front where they sit on top of the cross member that goes across directly behind each wheel well. I have shown that rust damage in a pair of photos of the floor directly behind each wheel well.
I have also shown a photo of the rear of the bottom of this box but that rust damage is not very obvious in that photo. I have also shown a close up of the rust damage on the bottom of the cross member located directly behind one of the wheel wells. The opposite end of that cross member has identical rust blisters on it. Evidently, the rear wheels sprayed salt water up that accumulated on top of that cross member and under the floor behind each wheel well. That accumulation of salt water eventually ate it's way through the floor and the cross member directly under that floor.
The bottom of the vertical pillar to the right of the tail gate opening is rusted through as are both bottom rear corners behind the side panels. There appears to be no rusted through spots on the back bottoms of either side panel.
I bought this box a while ago with the intention of using the superb floor center panel to upgrade the box on the 1974 pickup that my Dad bought new. I later decided that that truck was too nice of an original "survivor" to bother with replacing the box center floor. Now I am offering this box for parts to make your box one of the best ones remaining today.
I have about 50 more large and very detailed photos of this box that I can email to you if you call me or send me your regular email address. I do not wish to email them to you here through the eBay email system because I can only send 5 at a time and eBay drastically reduces the size of those photos.
I have a lot of friends in the collectible car, truck, tractor, toy and sign hobbies and may be able to help coordinate delivery of this truly exceptional box depending on where you live and how soon y u want it. Thanks a lot, Bob Woodburn - phone 406-799-1847 in Bozeman Montana USA
