Vehicle Description
Backing 304 cubic inches of reliable V8 power with a 4-speed,
row-it-yourself transmission, this handsome Scout is a clean,
one-owner trail tiller that features options like power steering,
power disc brakes, factory air conditioning and a dealer-installed
winch. Shopping for a choice classic that's equal parts charm and
equal parts capability? You've scouted the right listing!
Nearly every iconic Scout has a following, but the legendary Scout
II is arguably the most sought after. Introduced in 1971 as a more
refined take on International's vaunted Jeep competitor, the Scout
II was billed as a go anywhere ute that was ready to work or play.
Purchased new in Mesa, Arizona, this '77 model wraps all that
well-rounded swagger in original Glennoble Green single-stage
that's leveled with crisp Rallye stripes. At the front of that
pigment, a correct 2-slot grille hangs a small "INTERNATIONAL"
emblem between a straight bumper, amber parking lamps and
black-bucket headlights. Those torches, framed by a blocky brush
guard and a dealer-installed Warn winch, lead a fast profile that's
garnished with boxed markers, traditional door handles, substantial
mirrors and a polished fuel cap. At the top of that "IH" branded
fuselage, matte wipers lead a removable hardtop that's finished
with a vintage luggage rack. And at the back of the truck, a second
straight bumper centers a sturdy tow ball between simple taillights
and a whipping antenna.
Hoist the hood and you'll find 304 cubic inches of pure
International power. Torque meets the pavement through a 4-speed
manual transmission, which rides between a correct transfer case
and 10-bolt axles. That drivetrain rolls in a factory chassis
that's been upgraded with a fresh Rough Country Lift Kit. That
chassis is guided by power-assisted steering, and stopped by
power-assisted disc and drum brakes. Exhaust flows from painted
pipes to what appear to be factory replacement mufflers. And at the
corners of the floor, painted steel wheels twist a quartet of
33x12.50R15 BF Goodrich All-Terrain T/As around locking hubs.
Inside this classic you'll find an airy cockpit that has enough
room to be your vehicle of choice for any weekend adventure. Front
and center, broad bench seats provide enough comfort for four
adults. Beneath those seats, weather-resistant matting bridges the
gap between crisp Audiovox speakers and a duo of curved shifters.
Above those controls, a wood-trimmed dash hangs clean telemetry
next to factory air conditioning and a factory AM/FM radio. In
front of the driver, a color-keyed steering wheel laps a fixed
column. And behind the passengers, a large cargo hold shades a
full-size spare tire.
Mixing Middle America style with all-American utility, this sweet
Scout is a charmingly old school ute that carries undeniable
appeal. If you're looking for a cool cruiser that's rare enough to
show off, but not so exclusive you'll be afraid to drop the ropes,
you've found your next classic!
