While other iconic nameplates of off-roading have continued to survive, such as the Ford Bronco and Jeep Wrangler, the International Scout has fallen by the wayside. However, that doesn't mean this classic off-roader is any less loved. The Scout is so renowned that Volkswagen Group announced that they might bring back the nameplate with production models expected by 2026. In the meantime, we've got you one of the last 1980-produced International Scouts. This 1980 International Scout II Traveler is located in Tennessee and is perfect for those who enjoy outdoor activities. This fully restored example only has 40,000 miles on its odometer and is all set to begin an adventure.
Seasoned International Scout enthusiasts use the different front grille designs to distinguish between Scout II models. The final year of production for the Scout, which our subject vehicle is from, received a distinctive single-piece grille design made of ABS plastic. This grille has an "International" badge on the left side and houses squircle-shaped headlights. Wearing a charming white exterior paint job, our featured 1980 International Scout II Traveler showcases black Turbo Diesel emblems on the front fenders and an "International" badge on the tailgate. Its current owner reports that it wears new Firestone Destination XT tires that are housed in black fender flares. The pickup bed offers ample space for your luggage and features a bed liner. The black leather interior of this 1980 International Scout II Traveler is functional and offers two front seats and a rear bench seat. The dash is trimmed with chrome and there are several horizontal analog gauges that evoke ‘80s interior style. The armrest doubles as a storage compartment that can be locked and there are two cup holders as well.
When you pop the hood of this 1980 International Scout II Traveler, a 198 cu in (3.2 L) Nissan SD33 I6 engine comes into view. This engine was introduced for the 1980 model year and produced 101 horsepower and 175 lb-ft of torque. It utilizes a 4-speed Borg Warner manual to send power to the wheels. Using the 4WD shifter right next to the gear lever, you can activate the 4x4 drive to get yourself out of tricky situations.

In a nod to the past and with an eye on the future, 2021 brought whispers that the Volkswagen Group might resurrect the iconic Scout nameplate, a direct rival to the Jeep in its heyday before its discontinuation in 1980. The International Scout, known for its rugged off-road capabilities, spanned two generations and even teased a third with the Scout III SSV prototype. Among these, the second generation stood out for its exterior redesign and enhanced engine offerings. A prime example of this era is a 1971 International Harvester Scout II, boasting a formidable 345ci V8 engine. This vehicle has undergone a restoration, displaying a mere 5,380 miles on the odometer, ready for new adventures under the stewardship of an enthusiastic new owner.
With a legacy dating back to 1907, International Harvester carved its name in the fabric of automotive history by crafting trucks and pickups. Amidst its repertoire of agricultural and industrial machinery, the Scout emerged during a transformative epoch. Engineered to rival the Jeep, the International Harvester Scout became a dynamic player that reshaped the landscape of four-wheel drive vehicles. This off-road marvel graced the global stage in various iterations from 1961 to 1980. As the journey of the International Harvester Scout concluded, devoted enthusiasts embarked on restoring and conserving these automotive icons. The result stands before us: a meticulously restored 1973 International Scout II, an emblematic testament to the past.
Ford’s popular F-Series that is available today and in the fourteenth generation, was born in 1948. It was aimed at mobilizing American small businessholders, farmers and those engaged in trade. For the first generation, the range started with the F-1 which was a half-ton pickup truck. It had a 6.5-foot cargo bed, and sat at just 189 inches long; shorter than many full-size luxury cars of today. Over time, the F-1 has become a cherished classic and a symbol of American freedom – because it allowed you to take your family to market, with your goods for sale in the truck bed. This particular 1950 Ford F-1 Custom Build is a little different, as it’s a restomod with a host of upgrades. Residing in California and having just 13,367 miles since its rebuild, this truck is ideal for someone who wants classic style tastefully combined with modern features and performance.
The Ford F-Series came in 1948, and has continued uninterrupted to this day. Fourteen generations have been made, and it’s one of the longest-running nameplates in American automotive history. This 1956 Ford F-100 comes from the second generation of the series and has been subjected to a full frame-off restoration effort. With a V8 and plenty of attention paid to bring it to near-factory condition, this is a great classic truck for the discerning collector, as well as first-time collector alike. Since it’s seen just 328 miles of driving post-restoration, you’ll basically be its first owner, in a way!
Fun fact; the CJ in Jeep CJ stands for Civilian Jeep! By 1944, Willys-Overland had started planning a civilian variant of the popular military Jeep that had revolutionized battlefields all across the theaters of World War II. They knew that the War was coming to an end, and so would their bread-and-butter product. So, by 1945, the CJ-2A was introduced and sold over 214,000 units in just four years. CJ-1 and CJ-2 were prototypes and thus not available to the public. The series continued for decades, with the CJ-7 coming in 1976. This particular 1978 Jeep CJ-7 Renegade is thus one of over 379,000 units built over a 11-year production run. Bearing 7,101 miles on the odometer, this vehicle resides in Anderson, South California, and is waiting for a new custodian.
