1980 IHC Scout II Limeted edition review from North America

"Great classic 4 wheel drive"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

I bought my International Scout a few years back just as a fun 4 wheel drive. When I first got it it seemed a little slow. After a few months though it started to pep up. I think it just needed to be driven occasionally.

I have had to do very little to keep this car running. Last year the starter had a connection problem, but that only cost me around ten dollars. The 345 just needs an oil change every few thousand miles and the automatic transmission shifts like a brand new car.

General comments?

For a 3 ton pickup this truck handles great. When the top is taken off it handles even better. The seats are very comfortable and seem like new although they may have been replaced before I got it.

Major problems lie in the undercarriage of the car. The doors stopped opening so I had to jump in. It is in the garage right now in a few thousand pieces.
