Junkyard Find: 1962 International Harvester C-120 Travelette

In this series so far, we've seen this '70 Scout, this '71 Travelall, this '71 Scout, this '72 1010 pickup, this '73 Scout, and this '74 Scout. The crew-cab Travelette is a machine you won't see every day, so I shot this '62 that I spotted in a Northern California wrecking yard.

Yes, that's not much more power than a 2014 Corolla gets; pickup drivers were tougher back when instant annihilation threatened.
