This vehicle is not a total restore and Not without flaws, but it is a good running vehicle and in great shape for an unrestored vehicle. I would not hesitate to drive this cross country. It is a dependable vehicle. NOTE: THE TIRES AND RIMS ON THIS VEHICLE ARE NOT INCLUDED! I REPEAT TIRES AND RIMS ARE NOT INCLUDED. Because we are currently driving this vehicle until it is sold, we have the tires and rims from our 1967 Scout 800 on it. Once it is sold we will replace the original tires and rims back on the Scout II so it can be driven but they are not balanced and do not ride as good as my 800 tire/rims. The picture included of the spare is part of the original set and stays with the vehicle. The tires are good, but the rims are used and have not been balanced. So, please make note of this. We cannot let our Scout 800 rims and tires go with this vehicle. Please feel free to message us with any questions you may have or call us - 530-406-9169 or 530-604-7824.
