1963 International Harvester Scout 800

Project started as a California owned 1963 International Harvester Scout 80 (similar to an 800 but much lower numbers. functioning safari fold down windshield. and something no other bronco jeep or defender has) which was followed by a thousand plus professional man hour total build.  Project is complete with a full forged race suspension. chromoly cage. built aluminum ported 570hp+ LS3 6. 2L V8 with GM400. four point King 2. 5 coilovers/bump stop systems (currently set around 18" but capable of 20"+ front/30"+ rear race travel). retrofit modern Z06 dash. and even a hand-laid carbon fiber hood/bezel.  Truck has current California registration/tags/plates (renewal was just paid as of 10/17) and is an incredibly capable machine that has never been race and was built for weekend fun on the dunes (which has acquired 99% of its build mileage highway cruising).  

The Scout currently has a very 'streetable' set-up with a relatively mild Borla exhaust tone. total ride height under 6'6" to accommodate any common overhang. and brand new Polk flagship outdoor bluetooth/pandora/mp3 audio streaming system (under seat and overhead 8-way surround sound). Car is garaged in west Los Angeles and total build today would cost well north of $100k to replicate.  

Feel free to email with any questions. offers. etc. and may look at trades but really looking to downsize on toys.
