International Harvester.....

SCOUT5

.......1100 four door pickup.  I seen one this morning.   You don't see many of these anymore.  This one was in decent shape.   Mid 60's model but I'm not sure of the exact year.

Those old Corn binders were built like a tank!  IIRC a 2 door IH pick up was the first vehicle I ever drove.

I had a 1965 scout truck 2door.  It had a 4 banger that was a like 1/2 a V8.

Great vehicle but man they rusted bad.  I think that is why you don't too many around anymore.

Mine was like this but not as nice:

Granny low. You could put it in gear, let the clutch out, get out and walk beside it.

I think I had a total of six scout II's and one travel All. They were great trucks but Sam is right, you could hear them rusting on a quiet night.

Everyone I knew that had them drove them through creeks filling the floorboards and my boots with water, so it seemed to me they came by the rust pretty honestly.

Had a nice Scout II. Man do I miss that thing. Yes it eventually had the obligatory rust around the rear wheel wells and the inside where the spare tire mounted was 80% Duct tape. 😮

Man, you brought up old farm days. Those 1/2 tons trucks rode like a log wagon on a pot hole filled rode.  But it was a good farm truck for what it was.

Growing up on the farm a 69 International and 62 Studebaker pickup was what I learned to drive

My first vehicle was a 1949 IH pickup.   I was 15 and now free to roam!  Top speed of 45, either loaded with stolen gravel or empty!! Wish I had it back!

Had a 72 Scout.  Great vehicle but a real rust bucket

Can I play? Mine isn’t an IH but it’s similar. And made from aluminum - magnesium alloy it won’t rust! But it will burn....

I think one of the car shows on youtube I'm watching is fixing up a "Johnny Reb" on Wrench Everyday.

I've never seen one of them 4 dr 1100's corn binders.
If you want to see a tank, look at the old Dodge power wagons. I drove one in some serious mountain roads for few years. It had a big PTO winch on front. I winched out a 18 wheeler that was stuck in mud up to it's axles, had the back of the Power Wagon tied to a big tree as a dead man and the old power wagon was floating in the air as the cable tightened. Dangerous stuff if a cable snapped. Top speed about maybe 40, lot of gear noise. 6 cylinder
Here is a link to some pic's of them 1100's. I've got a 1977 IH Scout II, 4x4, 4 lo, 4 Hi and 2 wheel drive with positrac standard, 4 speed xmission with granny gear, 304 V8, 70K miles, Power Steering, Power Brakes, AC, winch on front, single cab hard top that was a full rag top when I first acquired. Had about  37K miles when I acquired.  I cleaned the undersides and uncoated the rig myself and keep the internal metal flushed out. No rust. Will cruise down Hi-way at 70, no problems. I have the Helm's series service manuals and do all my own mechanic work on the Scout II. Rides ok on dirt roads, not a rough ride like the old 800's. Them old 800 IH 4 bangers were made from 1/2 of the V8 engine.
Really a nice huntin buggy Corn Binder.
I had a teenage farm kid ask me once where I got that Massey Ferguson jeep. He was serious. Been thinking about trying to find  some Massey Ferguson emblem's to install on each fender. I have a nice IH cap I wear when driving it and my old IH tractor.

Learned to drive a 10 wheeler hauling grain in an old 1967 IH 4 speed with a two speed rear axle . Later drove an identical rig hauling drilling rods all over eastern nc and tidewater Virginia for about two years

Counting Cars, (Counts Customs) did a 74 IH Scout II for a couple a little while back. Man it was sweet. I wish they still made those Scouts, I'd like to have another. Probably be $41K plus though.

Dad bought a new 1965 Scout w/4 cylinder and 3 speed. It was a handy size for puttering around but was short on everything it needed for other uses.

When I was a kid my Dad bought a red Scout II. 
I loved that thing. 
At the farm now, there are 3 Scouts and 2 pickups sitting in the shed. 
Trucks are in good shape. 
The scouts were picked up for the rear ends.

Nothing like Scouting a little rearend for a pickup. 😉

I have a friend that had a scout years ago. He loved that thing, but the tin worm took its toll on the body and frame. He was in it and I was standing beside it talking to him and could see his leg through the hole in the door. That thing had rust through on every single panel. He drove it until the frame rusted so bad it cracked, then he took it to a scrap yard and he almost had to beg them to take it.
