Ride Description:
Restored 1978 IH Scout II 4x4, orig 196 CD 3.2L 4 cylinder gas engine, manual trans, 48,000k miles only when I got it and hardly had any rust; powerful aircon, power steering, bnew Pioneer stereo/cd/mp3 and 3-way speakers (I put the new stereo in the glove compartment. The old radio lights up when you turn on the new stereo), re-upholstered and with seatbelts (front and rear), all gauges are fully functioning, bnew 32x11.5R15 Maxxis Buck Shot MT tires, bnew Racing Ravano wheels, body lift, Warn locking hubs, step board and with original owner's manual. Almost everything is original except for the tires, step board and a few others.

I'm from Manila, Philippines. There's not many Scouts here in the Philippines, but that doesn't stop us Scout lovers from wanting to have one and restoring it to its pristine condition. Looking for parts was a test of patience. The parts we can't repair or find here in Manila, we ordered in the US from rockauto.com and scoutparts.com (thank God for the internet). I envy you guys with all your scout or binder clubs out there.

It took us 20 long months to finish the restoration work. SCOUT - anything less is just a car!
