    '46 Hudson PU had an oval one-piece rear window. Wonder if earlier ones had a two piece.

    The gratification of 'knowin yer stuff'! :rofl:

    I will try and snap some photos from the road this week, Im sure some pictures will help solve the mystery.

    Not sure, good thinking. I'll peruse the internet for Hudson's and see if anything looks familiar.

    That sounds like a 47-48 R-1 International. They had a split rear window.....

    The one you are looking at could be a older model IH. In the late 30's and early 40's they had a pointed hood. They make a nice looking rod.

    The consensus seems to be pointing to IH. My wife has been looking for a '46 - '50 Chevrolet pickup to restore. Maybe I can help broaden her horizons with an International.
