The International S series is a range of trucks that was manufactured by International Harvester (later Navistar International) from 1977 to 2001.Introduced to consolidate the medium-duty IHC Loadstar and heavy-duty IHC Fleetstar into a single product range, the S series was slotted below the Transtar and Paystar Class 8 conventionals.
In 1955, the primary International truck line became the S series, with the Travelall now offered on the S-110 or the heavier-duty S-120 ranges, with the SD 220 engine replaced by the BD 220 engine. For 1956, four-wheel drive became offered as a factory-installed option. [1]
The S series was a range of medium and heavy-duty conventional trucks that was introduced in 1977 to replace and widen the LoadStar and FleetStar lines. It used a new cab with flat panels and forward tilting hood in different lengths. The series was very wide, from the medium duty 1600 to the regional semi-tractor 2500 and severe-service 2600.
International Harvester's first in house six-cylinder engines appeared in some of the 1926 S-series trucks, seemingly a response to market pressures rather than to any particular need for such a layout. [5] In 1928, a new heavy range of trucks (the HS-series) built around a series of engines from Hall-Scott appeared.

Hundred series and follow-ons, grouped by upgrade (1955–1971) [ edit ] In this timeframe, all Farmall models are row-crop tractors, all International models are utility tractors.
In 1954, the numbered or so-called Hundred series tractors appeared. The Hundred series models used numbers instead of letters to identify the model. The new models were given slightly different looks and a few new features, but were still essentially the famed Letter series tractors.
