About this listen
Scout 80s were built between 1960 and 1965. These models were identifiable by a boxy, utilitarian design with removable sliding windows and a fold-down windshield. The rugged, no-nonsense look was geared towards functionality. Interior: Basic and spartan, with bench seating and minimal amenities aimed at utility. Engines: Powered by a 152-cubic-inch inline-four engine producing 93 horsepower.Red Carpet By the end of 1964, International Harvester had already built 100,000 Scouts. To celebrate this achievement, International Harvester marketed a “Red Carpet Series” Scout 80 in 1965 which was white with a red interior and had a “Custom” badge under the window on each door. Every International Harvester dealer was allotted one Red Carpet Series Scout 80 to promote the brand. This Scout was a step up from regular models; it was marketed to attract more people and was often advertised with women in mind.
