Well I use a 77 Loadstar 1800 with a tag. Also have a friend that has a late 60's 1600 SA. Mine has kinda been through the mill but the last owner put in a new engine, clutch and trans before I got it. Does the job for me. Buddies, the last owner kept it waxed and looks like a near new one, I think he is the second owner. within the first year he got to put in a transmission, rear end, and realized the engine needed a rebuild.
OK nuff of war stories.
SA trucks will hold 300 BU max. Not much use for them around here for that reason. My 1800 with tag hauls 550 and it is small but works for me.
IH made some good utilitarian trucks. Hold onto your shorts when you have to go to navistar for parts though. The brake basics you can get at NAPA etc but there are some specialized fittings that you have to go OEM to get and that is getting iffy for these older trucks even.

If it would just start when I turn the key, then I would use it more often. In addition to a bad case of old age, most of the tractor's original electrical system was simply too unreliable to keep. The main focus of this page is to show how I upgr
