International – other models: the collective page outside the named ranges, from DuraStar, HV and HX through LoneStar and PayStar to school bus chassis, 22 to 164 kW, diesel and electric

This page gathers the International vehicles the register could not assign to a named range – from the Cargostar and Fleetstar classics of the 1960s and 1970s through the modern DuraStar, HV, HX, LT, LoneStar, MV and PayStar ranges to school bus chassis, which International, trading as Navistar International, also builds under its IC Bus subsidiary. International Harvester, operating as Navistar International since 1986, is headquartered in Illinois; the four-digit and lettered designations historically ordered payload class and today correspond to individual ranges.

The register lists 105 versions here with 22 to 164 kW from six- and eight-cylinder engines of 2,830 to 15,125 cm³, unladen weights of 1,950 to 20,088 kg, gross vehicle weights of 3,450 to 38,951 kg and lengths of 5,100 to 11,900 mm; the majority run on diesel, with a smaller share electric.

International covers the entire North American spectrum from medium-duty distribution trucks to heavy long-haul and construction vehicles, while also being one of the larger suppliers of school bus chassis; competitors are Freightliner, Kenworth, Peterbilt and Mack, while the bus segment competes mainly with Blue Bird and Thomas Built Buses.

When buying used, check the turbocharger and injection system on the diesel engines (including the DT-466 family), frame corrosion and air suspension condition on the chassis, safety equipment such as doors and warning lights on bus bodies, and battery condition and charge cycles on the electric versions; parts run through the Navistar International dealer network.

What to check before buying

  • Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
  • Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
  • Check the weights in the papers against the figures here — attachments change them.
  • Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
