Description
Lot #470 - This one-owner, all-original, matching numbers, beautifully restored Bahama Blue 1969 International Harvester Scout 800 "Doll-Up-Scout" is one of a kind and possibly the only one ever built with its unique configuration. Custom factory-ordered, including the 196ci 4-cylinder Commando engine, RA-23 3580-lb single-reduction rear axle with Power-Lok limited-slip differential, T-44 4-speed manual transmission and Dual 10-gallon fuel tanks. 74,870 original miles with heavily documented original service manual, with over 100 pages completed by the original owner. Original factory Build Sheet, Line Setting Ticket, original Bill of Sale, letters to and from International and additional documentation are all included in the sale. A beautiful new coat of original Bahama Blue paint and white steel travel-top. This "Doll-Up-Scout" was a high-option Scout offered in the later Scout 800 models in order to compete with its Jeep rival. The original bucket seats and door panels have been reupholstered to match the original factory color interior, and new period and color-correct carpet has been installed. Original hubcaps, spare tire and additional original parts will be included to complete this highly documented restoration.
