This is a really nice example of an original scout 2 that runs and drives, and stops. It has working headlights, and 2 speed wipers. The turn signals and hazards work. The brake lights and upgraded H4 halogen dim/bright lights work and It has working seat belts. One of the cool things about the Scout terra isthe top is fiberglass so it will never rust!! It has spent most, if not all of its years in Texas away from the salt and rust up north. body appears to be in great shape including body mounts (see pics). All the gears work on the transmission and has stick operated transfer case featuring Hi/low 2wd and 4wd. Odometer is showing 132,448 miles. I could not tell you if they are original miles. The charging system also works like it should to keep the battery charged.
This scout starts right up, runs, drives and stops with good response and pep for an old scout. The truck comes equipped with power disk brakes, power steering with a working original horn button (this is pretty rare). The Interior has ALL NEW factory style seat upholstery and also a brand new carpet. The truck is well built from the factory with Dana 44 axles in the front and rear and brand new 31/10.5/15 tires. This scout has the V8, 345 cubic inch motor which is the biggest motor available from the factory . It also has torqueflite 727 automatic transmission and Dana 20 transfer case.
This is a CONVERTIBLE TRUCK !! The top comes completely off for an open-air drive or beach cruise! The last few photos are of the undercarriage, body supports and the rockers and windshield frame corners which are all in excellent shape. (Usually these areas are rusted to bits, especially up north in the snow)
