We purchased this from a neighbor of ours in Los Angles. He bought a distressed property and this 1946 International KB-1 was just sitting there waiting to be restored. So our other neighbor Tony, who owns a body shop, agreed to take on the project in his spare time. He rebuilt it from the ground up and here’s what was done to it:
• Completely rebuilt 1976 Buick V6 engine
• Rebuilt transmission
* Sand blasted and undercoated chassis
* New front suspension
* New electrical harness 12 volt
* New Aluminum Radiator
* New front disc brakes
* New White wall tires
• Custom dash
• Electric fan
The truck didn’t come with an engine or transmission so we put in a 1976 Buick V6 completely rebuilt so now engine only has 561 miles.
Here are a few things it will need: hubcaps, alternator bracket, windshield wiper assembly.
It runs well and we’ve had fun with it but don’t use it much so hoping there’s someone out there who will enjoy it.
Contact me if you have any other questions.
