Vehicle Description
The Scout was a compact off road utility vehicle produced by
International Harvester from 1961 to 1980, with a second generation
introduced in 1971. They were produced in Fort Wayne, Indiana, and
was a competitor to Jeep, Ford, and GM compact SUVs. They were
available with a wide variety of engines and body styles, including
soft tops, pickups, and hardtops. The Scout II built on the success
of the earlier model but featured more creature comforts in
addition to buffed up mechanicals.
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this super original 1972 soft
top Scout II for your consideration. The body is painted in slick
shade of Medium Blue Metallic and is in great shape. The body is
very straight and free of rot and rust as this truck originally
from Montana. The truck has a very solid frame and body and the
interior is in great shape as well. The blue exterior is accented
by white painted bumpers, wheels, and a nice white convertible top.
Fender flares and a rear plastic tailgate trim round off the
exterior. Finished in black, the seats look very nice, and the
tough metal dashboard is in good shape as well. The convertible top
fits well and appears to be well sealed. Black carpets and red
seatbelts also add to the interior.
While a few different engines were available, this truck is powered
by the top of the line 345cid V8 engine mated to a 4-speed manual
transmission. The engine appears to be original and runs without a
hitch. With a both low and hi ranges, this tough 4x4 will get you
to places that many cars can't. Tough Dana axles and a powerful V8
mean that this Scout is the perfect companion for scouting
around.
