International engine.
In Nov, 2007, the owner wrote:
  I've built mostly 4WD IH Scouts for the last 13 years.  An IH dealer that I've known for almost 20 years got me hooked or hoodwinked on this car.  We both wanted to put the 4WD front axle and a transfer case in it. 
 
He told me about it when he got it in Reno at a Harrah's auction 15 years ago.  It has a Mr Corvette sticker on the bumper from Hayward, CA.  He was a guy that tricked the old hot rods out with corvette/chevy gear in the bay area. 
 
Drivers windshield supports and frame are in the tub of the car along with the clamshell seat base covers for a bench seat.  This has the fiberglass fuel tank on the back deck too.  We've found one number on the rig in ink, it looks like 518 or 513 but I saw those serial #'s on the site.  Note - both car 513 and 518 are registered on the Annex, would be 1972 cars and both seem to be Roadsters.  Annexmaster

THIS CAR was for sale - as of 11/19/07 - and sold sometime after thatFamily says sell and finish building my Scout.  Listed locally on Sacramento Craigs list $3500 obo.  530-885-9427

UPDATE: In April, 2006, the following info was received from Randy who recently purchased car # 748--Last spotted in Bayport, NY. That's my home town. This car is in car heaven unfortunately.
I do not have photo's of the post fire condition. It was in the middle of the blaze and was reduced to a melted pile. Tires were burned off and the glass was down to fiber remains. It was not a pretty picture, it pretty much collapsed into itself.
I had checked the old car over and never did find a serial number. Someone removed the Glassic emblem and had a 31 Ford ID plate installed in the same location. It was registered as a 31 Ford in NY. It was sold to me as a 66, but I have no way of knowing if this is true or not. It was a beauty, the insurance paid me $27,500.00 for the car.
