1947 IHC Truck.......By Reid Callaway
1947 International Harvester KB 5 Truck
I found this beauty in the mountains of Tennessee near Wears Valley. The rust is so pretty on these old beauties you almost wished they make a color like it. If you like old antique trucks, this one is for you.
The International Harvester K and KB Series are trucks that were produced by International Harvester, the first being the K introduced in mid 1940. In total there were 42 models, 142 different wheelbase lengths and load ratings ranging from 1/2 ton to 90,000 lbs. They are best known for their durability, prewar design in a postwar era, and low price. The follow-up to the K, the KB, was introduced in 1947, with the characteristic difference being a widened lower grill appearing like "wings". Between 1947 and 1949 122,000 KB-1 and KB-2 trucks were sold. The KB series was subsequently replaced by the L-Series.
The International Harvester Company (abbreviated first IHC and later IH) (now known as Navistar International Corporation) was a U.S. manufacturer of agricultural machinery, construction equipment, trucks, and household and commercial products. In 1902, J.P. Morgan merged the McCormick Harvesting Machine Company and Deering Harvester Company, along with three smaller agricultural equipment firms, to form International Harvester. In 1985, International Harvester sold off selected assets of its agricultural division to Tenneco, Inc., who merged it with its subsidiary J.I. Case, to form Case IH. Following terms of IH's agreement with Tenneco, International Harvester renamed itself Navistar International Corporation in 1986.
