This 1974 International Harvester Scout II following a refurbishment that included refinishing the truck in blue over blue vinyl and plaid cloth upholstery as well as installing a Dana 44 front axle, a Dana 70 rear axle, and a 383ci stroker V8 mated to a three-speed automatic transmission and a dual-range transfer case. Additional equipment includes a four-barrel carburetor, 15″ steel wheels with 35″ Hercules Mud-Terrain tires, power-assisted front disc brakes, power steering, a body lift, black Rallye-style graphics, a swing-away spare tire carrier, side steps, and a blue-bedliner-finished removable hardtop as well as front bucket seats, AutoMeter gauges, a heater, and an aftermarket stereo receiver.
The replacement 383ci stroker V8 was installed and is equipped with a four-barrel carburetor, an Accel electronic ignition system, finned valve covers, and an aluminum radiator assisted by electric fans. A replacement wiring harness sourced from Painless Wiring was installed as part of the refurbishment, and a high-torque starter and SCAT flexplate were installed. The oil was changed in preparation for the sale.
Power is sent to the rear or all four wheels through a three-speed automatic transmission, a dual-range transfer case, a Dana 44 front axle, and a Dana 70 rear axle.
The body was removed from the frame and refinished in its current shade of blue with black Rallye-style side graphics as part of a refurbishment completed under prior ownership. Exterior features include a removable hardtop finished in blue spray-on bedliner, black-finished aftermarket bumpers, a swing-away spare tire carrier, side steps, rock sliders, side mirrors, rear-mounted fuel can holders, a rear receiver hitch, blue LED accent lights, and a dual exhaust system with MagnaFlow mufflers and turned-down exits behind the rear axle. The side mirrors, lock barrels, and windshield wipers and arms were replaced.
The 15″ black-finished steel wheels wear 35×12.5″ Hercules Terra Trac M/T tires. The body has been lifted using body-mount spacers, and the truck rides on leaf springs and Ride Tech shocks at each corner. Additional equipment includes power steering, a Ride Tech steering stabilizer, a frame brace, manually locking front hubs, and power-assisted front disc brakes and rear drums. The brake master cylinder, brake booster, and brake lines were replaced as part of the refurbishment.
The front bucket seats and rear bench were reupholstered in blue vinyl with blue and white plaid cloth inserts that also extends to the door panels. Equipment includes a heater, a black-finished roll bar, floor-mounted transmission and transfer-case selectors, vent windows, lap belts for four occupants, and an aftermarket stereo receiver with Bluetooth connectivity. The heater hoses were replaced as part of the refurbishment, and the floors are covered with a spray-on textured material.
The blue three-spoke steering wheel fronts AutoMeter instrumentation including a 120-mph speedometer, an 8k-rpm tachometer, and readouts for transmission temperature, voltage, fuel level, coolant temperature, and oil pressure.
The digital odometer shows under 300 miles. Total mileage is unknown.
