I’m at a loss for words on this one.
I have never seen a Red Green item on craigslist, might be valuable.
This was posted on Early CJ5. I didn’t actually find it.
Yikes!
Yikes is right! Even for a rat rod, that thing is just as ugly as a hat full of A$$holes.
BOY ,what a imagination .
Only in the great state of NC could you find something like this….
Somebody has excess time on their hands. I could think of better ways to spend the time
No way anything that fugly could happen by accident….(Rolling Eyes)
Usually try not to insult anyone’s work, but that is just plain BAD….
I cannot unsee what I have seen.
Again the question is WHY? What a waste of good International truck parts.
SICK!
That’s good thinking Dave, advertise it and help perpetuate it’s longevity.
Well that’s one way to fix your car when a tree falls on it. Also the screams from the backseat can’t be heard by the driver. Plus it’s the mascot for Congressional compromise !
Guys,
The key to this unsightly puzzle are in the seller’s last two lines of near equally malconstructed text.
“this internatnal has agood title .would trade on older restorablela classic must have good title thanks”
This dude somehow ended up with a presumably decent running car with no title. He did — however — unfortunately have a poor, unsuspecting International pickup cab handy that he did have a title for.
I only wish that I had never seen it. It reminds me of the original version of the movie “The Fly”.

I don’t usually post twice on one item here, and I apologize ahead of time if this comment is out of line..feel free to remove it if is…..
After really looking closely at this I believe that it is a good example of something our Bi Partisan C@N@R@SS would come up with…

Nice to see people enjoy this ad 🙂
where is earl shieb when you need him
Bad dream gone bad.
Someone’s on a bad acid trip…
This has GOT to be the best group of responses, all of them, as well as the most responders I’ve seen here. I’m still bustin’ up laughing at them all. What emotion this piece of artwork created.
Steve’s right, this must have been built for the Red Green show. (lol)
This may be a ’52 Cornbinder, but definitely not a ’62.
Buz and Robert are right on the mark. It is best described as the poster child for “Congressional Compromise.” (It’s too close to reality to laugh out loud without finishing with a puzzled face.)
I’m not afraid to hurt someone’s feeling, but I have to end on a positive note: I can appreciate the hard work and planning this must have taken. But most likely assembled by a Redneck wanna-be.
