Vehicle Description
GR Auto Gallery is excited to present this 1970 International Scout
Metro Aluminum 1200, an ultra-rare aluminum-bodied panel van
originally designed for working professionals who needed
reliability, visibility, and cargo space. Finished in raw polished
aluminum with black leather seating, this Metro's vintage styling
and streamlined construction make it a true standout, whether used
for display, branding, or custom conversion.
Powered by the iconic 304ci International V8 and paired to a
column-shifted 3-speed manual transmission, the Metro 1200 delivers
surprising torque and mechanical simplicity. Originally designed
for heavy-duty service, it rides on steel wheels with chrome
hubcaps and is built to handle weight, wear, and long days on the
road.
Inside, it remains a blank slate, offering endless potential for
conversion into a food truck, camper, mobile showroom, or vintage
shop vehicle. The sliding driver and passenger doors make for easy
entry, while the wide-opening rear barn doors provide effortless
access to the cargo area. A black leather driver's seat and exposed
rivets emphasize the Metro's utilitarian roots while hinting at its
custom potential.
Dubbed "The Businessman's Van" in period marketing, this Metro was
built for practical cargo flow and visual appeal. Its unique
riveted aluminum body is reminiscent of Airstream trailers and
other iconic American designs, making it a perfect platform for
creative automotive visionaries, collectors, or businesses wanting
to turn heads.
