There is a roof hatch to get in and out. I think IH made them before the loadstar but they are neat looking. Only ever saw one in real life. Cives Steel in Winchester, VA. used to have one. I had several International Scouts over the years. I remember when there was one "parked out back" up at Powell's Truck and Equipment in Lynchburg, the International truck dealership. Somebody bought it for the transmission or transfer case or something, didn't give much for it, seems to me it was a couple hundred bucks. Got whatever he needed then sold the 345 engine for more than he paid for the Scout to start with. A company in Lynchburg called Mrs. Giles bought the engine. They made coleslaw, potato salad, that type of stuff, and they had a fleet of Loadstars with 345's in them and one of them needed an engine.

67RModel Posted 21 minutes ago Share Posted 21 minutes ago Well its not a loadstar but an R series with the single man cab. Its crazy. I was not even looking for internationals and this popped up in my search. Kind of strange that I mentioned it yesterday and have not seen one in years.... 1968 International R190 Series Single Center Seat Dump Truck - Commercial Vehicles - Glen Campbell, Pennsylvania | Facebook Marketplace | Facebook Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/73953-1972-loadstar-my-love-for-loadstars-continues/page/5/#findComment-587432 Share on other sites More sharing options...
