Default Your opinion

Found a 1974 international scout II 4x4 inline six wood bed with wood doors(looks factory, ill get picture's up this evening), has no rust, 4wd works, motor runs and everthing just needs gas tank cleaned or replaced. Thinking about trading my built 1975 GMC for it and build the scout up as a driver and trail rig, what yall think?

here make it easier, here's the link

i would definitely get it. i love the IH travellers myself. the only thing is replacement body parts are scarce. but if its something thing that you know you want and will keep for a long time...then go for it!!

the only real thing I hate is the wood doors, but could probley find some of another scout or make some.

Its ugly now, but with D44's front and rear, I figured with some time, custom bumpers, link's and some 35's she would look good. Keep it to be a cruiser on sunny days and still hit the trails.

OH SNAP!!!! i didn't even see the link you posted of the scout with the wooden doors. i was actually visualizing wooden doors like this classic surfer car.

when you said wooden doors, you really meant 2x6 wooden doors!! haha there is no way that is factory out of the IH product line. let me take back what i said earlier. DONT DO IT!!!
