JTFormula Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 This truck gets around on here. I think there is at least two other posts about this very truck before. I took a picture of it at Macungie in 2012 and didn't know what it was either. Definitely a cool truck that's not often seen.

This is an antique truck and that's all the information I have.If you click on the picture it will open enlarged. Clearly on the front is the IH symbol and on the fender is INTERNATIONAL ACO. The sign states Sightliner. 2 Quote Ken PRR Country and Charter member of the "Mack Pack" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Gmerrill0516 Posted December 16, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted December 16, 2013 Those low windows in front can give a great view of anything you smash into. Can't (or shouldn't) drive it wearing a kilt either...just saying. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

High Binder Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 I could have bought one about 4 years ago for $1,500. It was a long wheel base tandem and I was supposed to go look at it. It was 10 hours round trip and I just couldn't bring myself to drive that far. I sure wish I had made the trip. Don't know what ever happened to the truck.

Joe Ditchkus Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 I looked in IH Truck Book by Frederick W. Crimson. It says ACO'S were made from 1957-64. Several different versions 48" ca, sleeper cab option, single axle, tandem axle, and 8X6 version with dual steering. From what I found gas pot powered only, no diesels that I saw.It said ACO'S were not accepted well by drivers for bad ride,noisy interior,and glare through lower windows from approaching automobiles.
