Hello all, I'm starting the listing at the value of the engine + wheels/tires. VIDEOS AND MORE PHOTOS The $250 deposit is non-refundable. Please only bid if you want it. -There is 52,000 miles on a NEW (not rebuilt) SD 33 engine, that came on the crate from Nissan. I have the paperwork and it is on file with Jesco. The engine isn't broken in yet. It starts right up and does nothing but purr. When the engine was replaced, so were all the other main parts. For raw simplicity -the less moving parts the better- the turbo and AC were not reinstalled (they come with it though). It is a 4spd Manual with heavy duty stock gearing. Here is a list of the prominent service within the last 52k. -NEW engine -New Clutch -New Starter -New Water Pump -New Poly fuel tank (Best for alternative fuels) -New fuel lines (Biodiesel / WVO grade) -New radiator hoses -New hubs -Struts serviced (added to) -New Steering Gear -New U Joints -New Seals on removable Fiberglass top -K&N Air filter -New Raycor Fuel filter / water separator (in addition to stock filter -it’s double filtered) -Tires and wheels are brand new (few hundred miles on them). Many of the parts that were replaced when the new engine was installed were in good working order and kept for spares. Comes with spare: -turbo -clutch -starter -AC setup -water pump (If you want to use any of these, you may have to pick up some bolts or a belt or some small pieces, but all the main pieces are there, please know that this is over $1000 in parts alone). Also comes with: -complete international traveler scout repair manual volumes 1 & 2 -Complete Nissan SD-33 repair manual -Brand new spare with brand new matching rim -Additional spare tire -original carpet -custom curtains to enclose back area for sleeping -custom mosquito netting for camping and keeping the hatch open -jack and wrench -a slew of receipts, and even Polaroids of the engine swap! Here’s the imperfections: -Windshield is cracked in front of passenger seat. -The springs for the rear hatch door work great when it’s warm out and need some help when it gets cold. -The stock temp gauge does not work, however it has a more specific aftermarket one that works perfectly -The emergency brake cable could be tightened up -The gas gauge seems to top out at half tank, sit there until the fuel comes down some, then start working. I'm not sure how precise it is as I've never taken it below a quarter tank. Pretty easy to just keep track of miles. -The dash lights currently don’t work. Just need to tweak something in the switch, I didn’t mind the darkness and didn’t look into it. All other lights and a custom overhead light work as they should. - It has rust. Given the mechanical condition, it seems like an excellent candidate for a 4x4 rig that you would trust in the middle of nowhere, and/or dropping in some FIBERGLASS SCOUT PIECES down the road to make it an unreal scout. -All doors take some extra force to close them fully, and they function as they should -I closed the rear hatch the other day and the lock mechanism popped out. I never locked it anyway because you have to pull the hatch open at a unique angle (anyone trying to get in would conclude it’s locked) so I didn’t bother reinstalling it, comes with it. -It does not have AC installed (comes with it) -It does not have a block heater (not really necessary for the Pacific Northwest, but if you take it somewhere colder, I’d recommend one). Other details: -VIDEO SCOUT DRIVING Not the best at driving and videoing, and hopefully this will be helpful for those of you bidding before you can drive it. -This is a RARE rig, there’s a club: http://dieselscout.ning.com/ -This is a perfect rig to convert to run on an alternative fuel like vegetable oil. It already has a WVO compatible fuel tank and fuel lines. It has no regulating electronics; if you put a a combustible fuel in it, it will combust. It has a built in fuel purging pump (a precious function when running alternative fuels, the raycor filter also has a purging pump). -This engine is known around the world as an ultra reliable workhorse engine. -The radio works, it actually has Kawasaki speakers that sound fine. It has a tape deck, I don't have any tapes, but I wouldn't bank on it working. -There is 226k on the body, most parts have been replaced. -In colder weather it smokes some right when it starts up (they all do) then it clears up quickly. COLD START and ENGINE VIDEO In warmer weather it often doesn't smoke at all. -Unfortunately I've had a non-paying bidder before. If you have negative or zero feedback, please contact me before you bid, or I will cancel your bid. -The scout is located in Portland, Oregon. I’d be glad to pick you up from the airport if you are looking to fly in. Other than that, buyer is responsible for shipping. -If you are local and would like to come over for a test drive, please send me an email. If you have any questions, please email me. Leave a phone number if you would like me to call. All the best in your search. Travis
