Description

1970 International Scout 800A

304 V8

4 Speed ManualTransmission

Spicer 18 Twin Stick

This spent almost all of its life in Southern California hasnot be restored but dramatically improved. The biggest thing about this Scout is the lack of rust and original paint inside and out. A factory V8 Scout is the icing on the cake.

Mechanically

Everything is really nice and tight. Start and idles perfect due to a new Motorcraft 2150 Carbwith a manual choke. Engine has been tuned, ooling system refreshedwith a new core, hermostat, oses and belts. The is one of the smoothest IH motors I have had. No unusualnoised. Clutch is new and works great. Brakes have been done all the way around and are factory manual. New Gell Cell Battery with TG battery holder welded in. New battery cables and much much more.

Interior

Stock, omplete and nice. Missingthe radio but I wired it up so you can add one if you want. Thepaper glove box is missing. I did an electricwindshield wiper conversion and all the vac wipers are gone. A very nice upgrade. New seat covering and a rare stock rear seat. Seat belts for the kids and adults. Just surface rust in the driver and pass floor but has the original paint.

Fuel

Cleaned the fuel tanks on both sides, ewseeing units, oses andscrew in gas caps. New fuelselector valve as well. Runs great off the mech fuel pump.

Exterior

Dents and dings andscratchbutoriginal. Rare spare tire carrier. Top is in good shape but surface rust showing inside some and the hatch works fine. All theglass is great. Windows roll up and down and vent wings work fine. I have a used front piece that willshipwith the vehicle if youwantto swap it since there is a dent on the driverside front. It would bolt right in. There is one rust spot in the tailgate an shown in the pics.

Lift Kit and 4WD

This features a new CPT 2" lift kit with reverse shackle kit installed.Bilstein 5100 Shocks all the way around. You can fit 32-33" tires. The Scout has 31 x10.50 x 15 on is now that still has good tread. 4x4 works perfect and this Scout would go anywhere.

Thisis not a trailer queen. It is a serious Scoutwhere money was spent to make it worklike it should. Finding onewith out filler, pray in bed liner covering the rust andcomplete is easy thing to do. This is an honest Scout at an honest price. You could restore it, ut then would you drive it off road? V-8 Factory Early Scouts are getting more rare by the day. Take this one home and enjoy it for the next 50 years. I amaskingjustwhat I have in this Scout.
