1979 International Harvester Scout II [Down On The Street]

Welcome to Down On The Street , where we admire old vehicles found parked on the streets of the Island That Rust Forgot: Alameda, California. Lots of Scouts on the island! Let’s take a look at the others before we admire today’s street survivor: First, this ’72. Another ’72. Yet another ’72. This ’76. This ’77 Traveler. And this final-year ’80. OK, now on to today’s truck! This truck, built during the next-to-last year of Scout production, lives just around the corner from the super-clean ’64 Galaxie 500 convertible we saw last weekend. It appears to be a daily driver. Who needs cup holders and faux wood dash trim? Some might say that Alameda- which is quite urban, completely paved, snow-free, and lacking in any hills of any sort- isn’t the kind of place where a Scout makes sense. We disagree, however; a Scout always makes sense! First 500 DOTS Vehicles • DOTS FAQ
