Technical data
Condition
-
Mechanical condition
Four-wheel drive with a long wheelbase between full lock requires a driving style that needs a little longer anticipation. Engine and gearbox feel as low-mileage as they are, albeit with a need for deliberate gear changes. A small manifold leak is also audible. The efficiency of four-wheel drive has not been tested, but the off-road capability of a low-mileage International Harvester 200 Eight All Wheel Drive is unlikely to be so limited.
-
Interior condition
Fine and unrestored interior with all details and equipment intact. The period-correct and neatly patterned vinyl on the sofa and door panels is intact and clean, apart from a small tear on the side of the seat cushion on the right side.
-
Exterior condition
Clean and smart original paint, the delivery chassis with cab was likely ordered and delivered in a solid red color from the manufacturer. Good chrome and details. Fresh and correct Firestone tires for the model from 2015 with good tread.
-
General condition
Delightfully unrestored in its complete fire truck configuration, it is a natural choice for any collector of emergency vehicles. However, for a more unsentimental and practically minded buyer, it should be possible to remove the heavy compartment box, replace it with a lighter flatbed construction, and re-register the vehicle as a light commercial truck with a total weight under 3,500 kg.
