1980 International Harvester Scout II SPX
The 1980 International Harvester Scout II SPX captures the rugged spirit of American four-wheel-drive vehicles, combining the Scout's distinctive utilitarian design with the durability and off-road capability that established International Harvester as a respected name among outdoor enthusiasts. Introduced as a competitor to the Jeep CJ and Ford Bronco, the Scout II became particularly popular for its versatile removable hardtop, durable drivetrain, and trail-ready construction. This particular final model year example, showing 106,702 miles, is finished in Bronze Metallic with a Tan interior and features a collection of off-road-oriented upgrades. Beneath the hood sits the desirable 3.3L Nissan SD33T turbocharged diesel inline-six, paired with a 4-speed manual transmission and four-wheel drive. Additional highlights include a Dana 300 dual-range transfer case, Dana 44 axles, a front-mounted electric winch, KC auxiliary lighting, and an aftermarket suspension lift kit. With its distinctive Scout Rallye graphics, vintage diesel powertrain, and adventure-ready equipment, this Scout II offers an appealing combination of classic American SUV styling and traditional off-road capability.
