1979 International Scout II (Modified) I have owned this Scout for 8-years. It has been set up for off-roading in rocky terrain. It has frequently visited Rauch Creek and Paragon (while open) in central Pennsylvania. It is not trailered and is driven to the trails. It handles “Black” rated trails well. The truck has a rare Terra fiberglass top and bulkhead installed giving you the short-bed pickup look. It is currently registered in Maryland with “historic tags”.

All the headlights, fog lights, brake lights and marker lights work. The turn signals do not work. 7. No A/C just fans In addition to the vehicle, I have a numerous spare parts for the truck that will be included. I don’t have a complete list of these parts. Most are IHC parts not aftermarket parts. A set of remanufactured cylinder heads and an Advance Adaptors kit for swapping in a small-block Chevy engine are some of the items included. Changes to personal circumstances have led to the decision to sell this vehicle. As stated earlier, you can drive this Scout home or have it shipped. A $500 deposit is due within 24-hours after the auction closes. The balance will be due within 7-days. I will work with you on the details of picking up the truck and the spare parts.
