This International Harvester Scout was acquired by the selling dealer in 2021 and was built under current ownership using the body of a 1967 Scout 800 along with the 345ci V8, three-speed automatic transmission, dual-range transfer case, and frame from a 1974 Scout II. The body was repainted matte silver with a matte gray Travel-Top, and the interior was refreshed with replacement seats, carpets, door panels, and audio equipment. Additional equipment includes a FiTech EFI system, 15″ black-finished steel wheels, hydroboosted front disc brakes, aftermarket bumpers, and air conditioning. This Scout is offered by the selling dealer at no reserve with a clean Colorado title listing the truck as a 1967 model.
During the build, the body from the 1967 Scout 800 was mounted onto the frame of the 1974 Scout II, and it was repainted matte silver with a matte gray removable Travel Top. Additional equipment includes aftermarket bumpers, a drop-down tailgate, and rear towing shackles.
The 15″ black-finished steel wheels are mounted with 31×10.5″ BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 tires. Stopping power is provided by hydroboosted front disc and rear drum brakes. The shocks were replaced under current ownership.
The seats are trimmed in black vinyl and were installed during the build along with replacement carpets, door panels, and sun visors. Appointments include air conditioning, a Boss stereo, and aftermarket marine-style speakers.
The Grant GT steering wheel frames a replacement 120-mph speedometer with an inset digital odometer as well as gauges for fuel level and coolant temperature. The odometer shows 1,800 miles. Total mileage is unknown.
The 345ci V8, the three-speed TorqueFlite automatic transmission, and the Dana 20 dual-range transfer case are said to have been sourced from the 1974 Scout II donor vehicle and were installed during the build, which also included fitting a FiTech EFI system and dual exhaust components.
The truck is also equipped with a Dana 35 front and a Dana 44 rear axle. A dual exhaust system was installed during the build.
A serial number of 780907G219613 is shown on the plate above, which matches the VIN on the Colorado title. The seller is unable to locate a stamping on the frame.
