1968 International Scout 800
1968 International Harvester Scout Description
For sale is my 1968 Scout 800 (It's titled as a 69, apparently that is the year it was sold). This Scout had a complete frame off restoration about eight years ago and has been garage kept ever since. The engine, transmission, transfer case and both differentials were completely rebuilt and new dash gauges. This Scout is mostly stock except for 16 inch wheels and new tires, a DIY electronic ignition, an aftermarket radio/CD player, a center console and electric wipers and electric fuel pump. Since restoration it has a little under 18,000 miles on it. It has taken first place twice in it's class at the Scout Nationals.During the restoration I had numerous parts powder coated including the complete frame, valve cover, oil pan, front cover and skid plate. It has the 152 CI engine and stock three speed transmission with the twin stick transfer case. There is no major rust on the body but a little staining is showing and since I did drive it almost 18,000 miles there is some wear to the finish. There is no body damage except for a small dent in the front bumper. there are no fiberglass body panels on this truck, everything is original IH.I did change the seats from the original bench seat to stock Scout buckets. Both the bed and interior floorboards have been bed lined and are in very good condition. The toolbox in the bed is included in the auction. I also have numerous spare parts included with this auction, including a spare transfer case, transmission case and parts, flywheel cover, front fender, spare dash cover, rear glass, hood, almost complete internal parts for both the Dana 27 and 44 differentials, wing window frames, clutch cover, tailgate, bulkhead, steering box and numerous other small parts. I also have the line setting ticket.This is a great truck and really fun to drive. I have far more invested in the restoration than I'm asking. Winning bidder needs to pay $500.00 on completion of auction with balance by cash or money order at pickup in Finchville, Kentucky. If you have any questions at all please contact me.
