Well, the truck is rated at 1.5 tons, however, from what I have been able to find and hear from the guys on OldIHC is that these will haul up to 4 or 5 tons from a frame and spring capacity. Engine and brakes are the limiting factor.
I will license it as a 5 ton, so no issues there.
My plan is to keep this original if I buy it. Will clean it up, but leave it pretty much "as is". I will update the brakes and replace the wood on the flatbed, and of course fix the front seat. Other than that, what you see is how I will l
Leave it.
Haf the reason I am considering it is because it is original and in great shape. Kinda like leaving a decent tractor in its work clothes.........
