Scout - go where others fear to tread

  1. The original (successor to the Scout 80). Ford copied it and won the ad wars. I had a Scout II, Dana 44s front and rear, big 345 V8, wish I could replace it.

  2. 1967 Scout 800 Sportop, 194 c.i. slant 4, tough and dependable and I miss it.

    This is it, to a 'T' - at least before I pulled the body off and re-painted it Forest Green.

  3. Do want. If it comes with the missing doors and top, more better yet.

  4. I miss the Scout. The original Bronco was close and the Isuzu Trooper was also a reasonable replacement. All long gone.

  5. I H built the scout in ft wayne indiana . 20 mi. from where I grew up. Several people in our neighborhood worked there and drove I H pick ups, scouts and travalalls. A lot of farms in the area used the red tractors . They could by for a discount if they worked there. 10000 people worked there in the late 70 s / early 80s . all gone now but the brick buildings.
