Traveler
1976 International Harvester Scout
1976 International Scout II Traveler. 345 V8. Edlebrock 4 barrel carb. Dual exhaust. 727 torqueflite 3-speed transmission. This is the first year of the 118in. wheelbase Scout with the fiberglass top and rear hatchback-type lift. The top comes completely off for open air driving. 54k indicated miles. I assume this has turned over once, but I don't know the actual mileage. Clear Colorado title.
Engine pulls strong and has no issue keeping up with traffic. Transmission shifts smooth, no issues. Scout was in southern California before my purchase. Arizona before that.
This Traveler was redone about 10-12 years ago (from my estimation) A 4" spring lift was added, 33" tires (nearly new), interior stripped and painted with bed liner, new replacement carpet and seat upholstery mimics the original. The body was resprayed in the original "buckskin" (beige) and the top in white. I added a steering stabilizer bar up front. New Petronix ignition, coil, cap, and rotor. New brakes, brake booster, shocks, bright-light kit, and slider windows. I have the line setting ticket and all records from my ownership.
Rockers are sound. Some bubble around the rear wheel arches is starting and some rust-thru on drivers side behind the front wheel. Left side is still solid. These are classic places for rust on these Scouts due to the design. Patch panels are readily available when the time comes that it makes sense to redo the metalwork. A retrosound system keeps the vintage look while proving a modern radio and USB port for your iPhone.
Super fun vehicle. Get alot of thumbs-up driving it. This Scout won first place in its class at the 2018 Rocky Mountain I.H. Rendezvous. It was the only vehicle in its class. But hey, still a very prestigious award.
Can send additional pictures. I've owned it two years. Ended up with three vintage vehicles and need to trim the fleet. Chris. 970.309.9753
