thanks for a great site! Found out about you on the outdoor channel...trucks! Or extreme 4x4, not sure which now, but am I glad to have found a place to help me with some stuff to rebuild my 74 Scout. It is my first brand new vehicle I got while still in high school..oops did I date myself? Well I still got it and have the 345 modified with parts supplied by sherman balch. Heads are ported/polished, shaved 110/thousanths, mallory dual point yl distributor, hooker headers, isky full race cam, 392 intake topped with a 750 double pump Holley. 727 torqueflite, B&M valve body replaced the 4 speed, and tci 3000 stall converter. Did a lot of racing with it but its body is infested with termites and needs a lot of skin work. I've got most of it but have got a lot of other mechanical issues to deal with since it hasn't been on the road in 10 or 12 years. I believe I will be a regular as soon as I get going on it.
Oh, and my Dad was a dealer of International trucks for many years until his passing and then I was active in the dealership from 1974 on until International decided to drop the light truck division, a sad departure I must say. However this site and many dedicatedowners and collectors will help preserve the heritage of great American made trucks and cars. Thanks for the priveledge of joining a great forum.

Hey guys anxiously waiting for the painter to get done with my new project. (po was in middle of getting Scout painted and decided to sell, good for me)
it's a '69 Scout 800 v8 304,automatic 4x4 I'll post picks once I actually get it.
The po had already had the engine and trans rebuilt replaced the seats frt and rear with new bestop cj units, interior is bedlinered and he installed a new wire harness in vehicle. He was fixing to start doing axle and suspension upgrades and his wife said to stop. I went and drove it and looked it over pretty good I didn't spot and rotted floor pans or body panels from the bottom side he said it didn't have any before they painted it. Steering, suspension and brakes worked but definitely had seen better days. I have been all over the internet trying to decide what my master plan is.
I found y'all thru google.
This is my first Scout always had jeeps in past I currently drive a 2007 jk on 37" mud grapplers. I would really like to make my Scout a daily driver on 33 or 35's and make my jk the toy. I hate to beat the body up on a classic. Plus it's just cooler to drive something old everyday.
 
Hello to all.

Well I have been stoking all the IH web site for some time, & a few weeks ago I happen to see a scoutdude80 in a post, on another web site. That was a member & lived in the bay area, so I send him a email with questions on hes Scout & if he knew of anyone that work on IH in the bayarea "san jose" he reply & ask to join IH north,& said he owns a duali, so here I am.

I have a 69 Travelall that runs some what!!! Or some times!! And
a 61 b100 with 32,000 miles. That I will have to part of with shortly.

Well, with life and family I dont have much time to work on the traveold, but reading all the post inspire me work on my rig.

I have to thank all the senior member for all the knowledge they poor in this site. You guys make the experience much better.
 
I got my first IH in 87 and have had six along the way. I currently have a 71 Travelall 4x4 and a 64 c1300 4x4. The 64 is highly modified and I use it to run some gnarly trails.

Found out about this site from people I run the rubicon with,some of them are on here.
 
Hi,
my name is Jeff, live in northeast nebraska. I have a '74 that I bought from my brother about 15 years ago, he had it for around 5 before that. It was my daily driver till about 6 years ago, since then it has mostly been a hunting rig.

I've been hanging out here for a while, doing a bunch of reading.
The way that things have been going the last couple of years my Scout has gotten kind of neglected, and I want to get it back into shape. I've always wanted to fix it up, but with the kids and other things there never seemed to be anything left to spend on it. Still isn't, but I've got to do something.

Later,
Jeff
 
Hello everyone, new to the form and just purchased my first Scout about a week ago. It’s a 1978 Scout II and so far :thumbsup: I currently live in eureka CA, originally from orangevale CA and I’m moving to guam this summer and the Scout is coming with me! I’m in the coast guard and drive boats for a living.

The only picture I have of my Scout right now, will take some better ones in the future

Born and raised in the chico/orland/willows/corning area of norcal, currently in washington. Finallly found the IH travelette I've been looking for, for a price I can afford...

New guy checking in.I need help with my 69' 800,she wont start,just stopped running like the key was turned off,the distributer looks good I have pertronix in
it and I get spark to all plugs(blue),timing is set,fuel pump is mechanical and fairly new,got plenty of gas comming in,also have new ignition switch.she sound like she wants to start but as soon as the key hits the run position, nothing.any ideas folks?::icon_stressed:
 
Welcome to the forum. Just for future reference, when you have a tech-related question your best bet is to post it under the most appropriate subheading. You're likely to get a more timely response that way. Now, you say you have a new ignition switch. Are we to assume the previous unit failed? In order for the engine to stay running with the ig switch in 'run', voltage must be supplied to the coil. You're obviously getting voltage to the coil during starter crank, otherwise you wouldn't be seeing spark from the plugs. So what you're lacking for whatever reason is the constant voltage supply when the key is on. The wire that supplies it is either missing, disconnected at some point, or connected to the wrong terminal on the ignition switch.

Edit...I see now after posting this that you did create a similar post under ignition tech. So I'll impart another piece of forum etiquette. Multiple posts concerning the same issue tend to get a bit convoluted with answers scattered between the two.

welcome.
Probably not such a gas guzzeling pig when you realize your truck weighs twice as much as a typical car.
And your chances of surviving a major accident in that are much better than they would be in a lightweight,
gas sipping, non performing, imported piece of recycled, third generation steel and plastic.
