The International RC180, often called the “snub nose” is a cabover truck with something of a following due to its funky, retro looks. This one’s an Oddimobile because the strange pics grabbed our attention. It turns out it’s an incomplete project.
It seems the seller was going to mount this on a Chevy S10 frame to make something of a rat rod. That frame and engine/trans combo are included, but not pictured in the ad, which also includes no price.
If you really want this, it’ll be worth the long conversation with the seller, which will eventually get you to a price. Note that the seller does say this has some minor rust; so it’s not perfect.
