This 1967 International Harvester Scout 800 is for sale in Renton, Washington and is listed here on Craigslist. We appreciate Curvette for sending us the listing because it is an interesting and relatively rare example of a late 1960’s International Harvester Scout. The 1967 International Harvester Scout 800 is listed for $15,500 which seems very reasonable for its condition. The current owner has had this Scout 800 for 7 years of ownership and says that it runs well. The ad states that the odometer reads 92,000 miles. This example comes with both the travel top and custom summer top. The picture at the very bottom shows the Scout 800 topless.
The Scout 800 is considered rare not only due to its age—now over 55 years old—but also because of its limited production numbers and unique design elements that set it apart from other models in the Scout lineup. The original Scout, known as the Scout 80, was manufactured by International Harvester from 1960 to 1965. The second generation, called the Scout 800, was produced in three sub-models: 800, 800A, and 800B. International Harvester produced the Scout 800 from 1966 to 1967. The Scout 800A was available from 1968 to 1970, while the Scout 800B had a brief production period from August 1970 to March 1971. The subsequent model, the Scout II, succeeded the Scout 800B and was produced from 1971 to 1980.
The interior looks very clean and has a custom console but retains the spartan appearance that the Scout was known for. The early Scout 80 came standard with a 152 cubic inch inline-four engine, delivering 93 horsepower. The Scout 800 succeeded the Scout 80 and retained the 152 cu in inline-four as an available engine option. Buyers of the Scout 800 could also order this engine with a turbocharger, providing an additional performance option. Furthermore, the Scout 800 offered a 304 cubic inch V8 engine, enhancing its power and versatility. In 1970, engine options were further expanded to include a 196 cu in inline-four and a 232 cu in six-cylinder engine and a 304 cubic inch and 345 cubic inch V8 option.
Unlike many of the Scout offerings we see, this on appears to be a solid driver. The seller states that he has maintained and enjoyed the ownership of this vehicle but it is time for a new owner. More pics and videos can be seen at BrianWiegand.com. International Harvester produced the Scout from 1960 to 1980 and built over 500,000 units. What do you think of this example?
This is a confusing write up. If it’s a 67, why is it written as a 76? We learn about the history of Scouts, including the first model (twice), but very little about this one. What is a rare summer top?
This reads like one of my high school student’s papers when they use AI.
It looks like the summer top (the white one) doesn’t have windows. It a fiberglass (probably) cover only, kind of like a bikini top, only it solid rather than made of canvas. I wish it had the V8 though to make it much more useful.
Its 1967. Looks like transposed 67 as 76.
Title on barn finds plus Craiglist confirm 1967
I agree TMI on models overshadowed some .
Models on these breakout
Scout 80 (1960–1965): Original standard model.
**********“Scout 800 (1966–1971): Same overall design as 80, with upgrades (electric wipers, newer engines, etc).”******
Scout 810 (1971); some early Scout IIs contain Scout 810 badging on the glove box.
Looks like the design department had lots of rulers but no French curves and maybe 1 compass. If you don’t want to be a jeep or bronco guy here’s your truck.
First gen Broncos were nothing more than a Scout rip-off.
Love the minimalist design.
I had a 62′ and a 66 and I can say I absolutely wish I would have kept them, at least the 62′ it was an awesome little rig.
