    By now you should know that, in addition to beautiful examples, I also have a penchant for crusty vehicles too. Whether to be kept the way they are or to be saved to be restored to their former glory.

    Anyway, there isn't enough from the pics in this ad to see just how rotten or solid this truck is, but I wonder if the seller knows just how much good examples of these are worth right now. Say what you will, but it's still a Scout II with the larger 345 engine.

    I love the older cars that are definitely nearing the end of their normal service life but haven't been butchered or torn apart. The kind of car that if it just had a bit of heavy duty maintenance and some care could continue to provide transportation for more years. IH cars were already on their way out when I was born and I only ever saw them rarely and rode in one once - my dad's business partner had one of this era that he babied (it was the same color as the one Doghead linked).
