One ton IH pick up or flat bed. It will most likely have a IH RA15 corp axle. There are few gear choices and locker choices so it will make a poor swap choice.
Is a 14 bolt that hard to find???

If it's 'mid sixties' then it will also be the 'big six' lug pattern instead of the usual 3/4 and 1 ton 8x6.5". Most likely it has 4.88 or deeper gears. It is possible that it has a Detroit in it. However, as O.S. said you're stuck with whatever's already in there as you don't have gear/locker options. The shafts will be big, but COURSE splined (and aftermarket replacements aren't an option).
Your best bet is to go with a 14Bolt like OS stated. That could be a cool, tough old truck, but it's not an axle donor! Take it only if you want to use it for what it was built for (hauling lots of heavy crap). :D
