International 1957 |
S series – discontinued |
|
In 1957, to celebrate IH's golden anniversary as a truck manufacturer, S series was replaced by the new A line. The name stood for "Anniversary", as 1957 marked the fiftieth (or Golden) anniversary of International Harvester's truck production. The new front end and panoramic windshield brings the design more up to date. The hood is now hinged in the rear, rather than being a lift-off unit. The parking lights are mounted above the headlights. As with the R- and S-Series trucks, there is a Travelall station wagon version developed from the new range. Four-wheel drive is available as an option on Travelalls from the beginning of 1956. The Travelette is a crew cab, available in 2 or 4 wheel drive. It is the first 6-passenger, 4-door truck on the market. |
