1972 International Scout II

1972 International Harvester Scout Scout II Description

For sale is this beautiful piece of history. With a hefty factory V8 345 cu in engine and bullet proof tranny, it is the love of my life, but I no longer have the capacity to restore her. I have replaced the entire wiring harness with fuse box, battery, water pump, fuel pump, stereo system (upgraded), all new belts, master cylinder, coil (MSD), and alternator (upgraded). I also upgraded the front axle to a Dana 44 with 373 gears to match the rear. She runs great, but I have removed the carburetor to reman, however I am no longer in the position to complete. I have all the parts that can be used by the right individual to rebuild or just use as a Core for a replacement. The only thing this baby needs to run is a water pump gasket and of course the carburetor previously mentioned. I have brand new rubber on it that has seen under 100 miles. The paint lines are still on them. In addition, I have installed brand new Rancho RS5000 Shocks both front and rear, as well as, a Moog steering stabilizer. The interior needs a bit of TLC but it isn't far off at all. The rest of the vehicle is extremely strong. It is believed that this vehicle's mileage is under 93K original and has factory air conditioning that works (needs recharged). This purchase comes with an Extreme High Lift (never used), High Lift Off-Road Base, High Lift Mate, and come-along displayed in the pictures. I am also including an extra rear Drive Shaft and other extra parts like spare hoses, bolts, new chrome window rollers, and such.
