A Travelette is a CrewCab IH pickup.. what you have!

A Travelall is a large Suburban-type enclosed "station wagon".

A Wagonmaster is a Travelall that had the rear "cargo" area modified so 
that it instead has the back side of a cab and a very short-bed with 
tailgate.. much like a crewcab El Camino.

BTW, you have the truck I want!  You should have something like a 160" 
wheelbase.. I figure that wheelbase makes it great for towing.. throw in 
the crewcab to haul 6 passengers, and the long box for a big camper (or a 
small camper and still have a bed) and I have a super tow-rig for my 
Scout IIs. :)
