Here is a 1975 International Travelall that me and my dad are restoring. We will pull the 392 V-8 out this weekend I hope. It was used to pull a 6 ton, 24' enclosed trailer w/ everything we owned, from Sacramento, CA to Chesapeake, VA. Roughly 3450 miles. Not one sputter the whole way. I love "The Beast" (thats what we call her ;) )

In one of the engine pics...you can see where a squirrel made its home during the 7 years its been sitting :D

I had a 1979 Scout II. 345, auto, fully loaded. I regret ever selling it, but I was afraid I couldnt keep it as nice as it was. It was from SoCal. completley rust free. A young guy brought it here when he got a job at a local university, and I bought it from him for $3000. I sold it for $5500. I have some pics I could scan, if interested.

I love those trucks!! I had a 71' Scout with a 304 3 spd. and also had the 71' 1ton crew cab with the 345 4spd. with compound low. I sold both of them with a house I owned in Oregon. Wish I still had them!!!

Sure...I'd love to see pics if its not too much trouble.

Also, If anyone knows of any online places to check out that has parts for these rare things. It would be greatly appreciated ;)
