1969 International Harvester Scout 800Offered for sale is a sharp,
highly collectible 1969 International Harvester Scout 800, finished
in an eye-catching Bahama blue with a crisp white removable hardtop
and matching side and hood stripes. Powered by its factory 304
cubic-inch V8 engine paired with a 3-Speed manual transmission and
factory 4WD, this Scout represents the golden era of vintage
American utility 4x4s.Mechanical & Performance Highlights:Engine:
Factory 304 V8 engine that starts easily, idles smoothly, and
drives down the road nicely. NEW carburetor, NEW tune-up (carb
running rich, needs to be adjusted), NEW dual exhaust. NEW
passenger gas tank (2 tanks), NEW tires. Lots of other things
new.Transmission & Drivetrain: 3-speed manual shifter paired with a
rugged dual-range transfer case for true 4x4 capability.Odometer:
Shows 98,000 original miles.Stance & Wheels: Riding on classic
white-painted steel wheels wrapped in NEW (less than 100 miles)
aggressive all-terrain rubber, complete with manual locking front
hubs.Underside: SOLID frame and GOOD body mounts. Driver's side
floorboard has been patched. Rear cargo area has diamondplate to
reinforce it. It is nowhere near perfect under there, but it's
solid and has been UNDERCOATED to prevent any further rusting. This
is a nearly 60 year old truck, please don't expect showroom
condition under there. LOOK AT PICTURES PROVIDED.Cosmetic
Presentation:Features a very clean, attractive respray in vibrant
Bahama blue complemented by side accent striping and a bright white
hardtop roof.Solid body lines with clean chrome accents,
aftermarket auxiliary fog lamps on the front bumper (not yet hooked
up), and a rear step bumper with a hitch receiver.Classic
utilitarian interior layout reflecting the traditional rugged
layout of the Scout 800 series. Seats and dash pad are in GOOD
shape as shown, normal wear. Vehicle RUNS & DRIVES as you can see
in the video, but needs to be dialed in properly. Nothing major
needed, some carb adjustment, radiator has a tiny pinhole that
needs patched. I believe one of the valves has a tap and needs
small adjustment. Basically it needs a good going over. Brakes seem
to grab well and clutch catches, but again i'd double check
everything before starting to use it daily. It's 90% there, waiting
for a new owner to button it up to their liking
