if a 1909 International Harvester could pass for Chitty Chitty, this would be the one... the Steam Punk exhibit at the San Diego Auto Museum in full effect

in the back, all the shiny cans? They are a solar power energy collector array

1957 1/2 - 1958 International Travelall.

The 1957 1/2 "A-Line" (A-100s) was totally redesigned for International's Golden Anniversary, and replaced the S-series nomenclature (the 'A' stood for Anniversary).  Although the styling held over for the 1958 model year, I believe that only the '57 1/2s were considered Golden Anniversary models.  Travelalls and panels had one door on the driver side, and two on the passenger side.

The basic body style held over for 1959-60 also, but with grill, trim, and headlight changes.

More cool things I photographed at the Beatnik Blowout

Vise grips for handles.. .I like that

black an purple interior look awesome

Not many people do this type of beautiful paint on the dash.. this is really nice

A center console arm rest.... good idea!

cool eagle pieces.. they remind me of the eagles on firemen helmets

Double 1940 brake lights .. that's new

the far left gauge is a compass... I like that it's looking retro, probably isn't factory, but looks damn good

This car has gotten a lot of magazine publicity, and internet coverage this summer, and it deserves it.

These kids were just passing time in their parents car, amazing. I wouldn't have thought that anyone would let 5 kids hang out unwatched in a nice car.
