1971 INTERNATIONAL HARVESTER SCOUT II 99 % RUST FREE NEW MEXICO TRUCK! Up for auction is a very well represented 1971 International Harvester out II. I purchase this vehicle from the second owner and have been restoring it (slowly) for the 3 years. The scout has been in New Mexico since 1985. THE TRUCK.The truck odometer currently shows 74851 and my guess is it has 174851. It will continue to climb as I drive it regularly. It original has rust in the floor boards, above the rear wheel wells and in front of the rear tires. I had it all removed and professional replaced with parts from "Scout Part". There is NO bondo from those repairs. Professional metal work was done here folks!! The only rust that was not repaired is a small bit above the driver side rear wheel well and a body mont on the same side. other than that it is now almost rust free. The Scout sat for a number of years when I purchased it and over the past three years I have also completed the following: Dropped the gas tank, cleaned, sealed and reinstalled. All fuel lines were replaced. The complete break system was drained and all break components were replaced for safety including wheel cylinders, master cylinder, calipers, rotors, steal braided custom break lines, etc. Cooling system was drained/filled and new hoses installed.
