Planning to distribute its
American-made trucks across our Dominion, International Harvester
moved into Chatham, Ontario in 1910. But 11 years later, wishing to
build vehicles exempt from import tariffs, it began the production of
its first Canadian trucks. The Chatham factory became one the
largest truck-building operations in Canada and in 1937 set new
standards of beauty and dependability for commercial vehicles.
Boasting streamlined styling in each line and curve, International
D-35 trucks were designed to look more like the grand cars of the
day than the rugged delivery trucks they were. With ergonomically
designed seats in a spacious cab, the D-35 indulged the driver
with confort and elegance previously unknown in commercial vehicles.
