I loved every Scout I ever owned (total of 5: a slant 4, a straight 6, and 3 v-8's). The issue was that they each slowly evaporated into giant missing areas around all the great mechanicals. Rustproofing was just not effective here ...
Lil tip from an ex tow / repo guy. I have seen you struggle since the beginning with loading vehicles that either dont have rolling wheels or have flat tires. I am hesitant to give internet advice, but I hate to see the struggle! The #1 thing that would help you a ton with the winching would be a snatch block! It is fairly easy to weld a few D rings onto the trailer so you have a few points to hook to, and then use the snatch block from those hook points to change the pulling direction of the cable. If nothing else, you can hook it back to itself to double your pulling power. #2 They do make a fairly cheap plastic skate for this exact occasion. The skates slide under the wheel that wont move and allows it to slide easily across almost any surface. Too many ways these things can be used, but will struggle a bit more with flat tires. On the cheap, cheap... you could make your own skates if you have some spare 4x4 lumber laying around. Cut yourself a couple pieces at about 16 inches long, and toss them in the truck. Once you get the wheels that wont spin or turn up to the deck of the trailer, slide them chunks of 4x4 under the wheel at a 45 degree angle, so the wheel will not roll over it, and I promise you, the vehicle will slide the direction you want it to go on that wooden deck of your trailer... Works even better on steel decks. I hope this will help you in the future. Thanks for everything you do, Puddin! :)
No matter what the subject is, when you meet someone that really, REALLY knows what they are doing you can tell. And when they are good people, it's a blessing.
Seeing you with your Dad is tough because I just lost my Mom. She certainly loved to watch you and Mortske every Monday. It was morning coffee with Mortske and the afternoon iced tea with Puddin. I sure do miss her. Thank you for your content and providing a quality time memory.
International offered the Scout with a variety of engines over its years of production. The Scout 80 used the gasoline-powered "152" four-cylinder as its standard engine. The 800, 800A, and 800B used the gasoline-powered "196" four-cylinder, AMC "232", "266" six-cylinder, "266" V8, and "304"V8. With the exception of the four-cylinder engines, most of these engines were shared with the International Light Line pick-up trucks and the International Travelall station wagon. A turbocharged version of the "152" four-cylinder engine was offered from 1965 to 1967. The Scout II had the following engine options: the 196 cu in (3.2 L) 4-cylinder, 232 cu in (3.8 L) 6-cylinder (early production), 258 cu in (4.2 L) 6-cylinder (later production), 304 cu in (5.0 L) V8, and 345 cu in (5.7 L) V8. International never installed a 392 cu in (6.4 L) V8 or an AMC V8 engine into a Scout. At the time, International did not manufacture a diesel engine small enough to be used in the Scout, and so starting in 1976 offered the naturally aspirated Nissan SD33 diesel engine as an option. This engine was replaced by the turbocharged SD33T engine in late 1979 for the 1980 model year.[8] List of engines IH 4-152 IH 4-196 IH SV-266 IH SV-304 (not to be confused with the AMC 304 V8) IH SV-345 IH SV-392 AMC 6-232 AMC 6-258 Nissan SD33 Nissan SD33T
And the 196 four cylinder was built on the 304ci or 345 ci 8 cylinder block. One side was blanked off with a flat sheet metal pan where the other head would go giving you a slant 4. My 1976 Scout had that engine
Guys like Mr. Stretch are becoming a rare commodity. Years of experience and knowledge just going away. Very few people are interested in their expertise and willingness to learn from them is dwindling. Thanks for bringing us along to learn something new.
John is awesome reminds me of my uncle Vernon he has owned several different makes and models of daily drivers and tow rigs, and parts junkyard vehicles turned into running driving projects and other projects like barn finds and hiding in the weeds held down by the earth farm find projects so he's the same way about working on vehicles and carburetors rebuilding them and installing bushings and valves rebuilding cylinder heads and valve seals, he's a mechanical engineer and auto mechanic by trade so he knows alot about carburetors and different makes and models of vehicles and why i mess with gm square body trucks and gm body cars some of the one's I've had came from my uncle
When you said always take your first date swimming to make sure there’s no false advertising made me spit my coffee. I from Oklahoma and I can tell you these are my people and I am so glad.
That things cool as hell, please give it the whole 9. Don't lower it, please. Just get er nice and fresh and paint it or wrap it if you dislike the green.
Remember that blue scout at d n h junkyard puddin those aluminum slots in the back of it but painted green where the blue is would look pretty sharp on that scout and there's a few nos sources of the ih parts
Finally, the best truck IH ever made on PFS, I am here for it. That one does not look bad at all as far as Scouts go, they usually rust up really bad on the floors and rockers. I think that is the AMC straight 6, which went in a few early Scout IIs. I think they are pretty rare, I go to a lot of IH events in my Scout and I have never seen one in person, most of them have either the 4 cyl Commanche, the 345 or 392 V-8, and a few with the SD-33T Nissan Diesel like mine.
That's a quality unit right there. My buddy had one with the factory Nissan diesel. Personally, I love those old Scout II's... I'd daily drive that one in the cooler months of the year. Simplicity at it's finest.. Interior looks great. Suspension and brakes to soften up that ride and make it stop on a dime. Really enjoyed the video sir ....
I’m in love with the darker green and the white decals and wagon wheels. This thing is in such good shape too, considering every scout I’ve ever seen was at least half rust. Please don’t get rid of this one, she deserves some love!
That was super cool that he let you film that bushing making and install. I know a lot of people that definitely wouldnt let you watch them do it let alone film it. Thanks for the lesson and great video.
Hot Damn!!!! It's Puddin's Fab Shop time!!! To bad this is the second Monday I'll be watching it in the back ground while I move. You, inspired me to get off my ass and finish my project. So, I am down sizing from a large place to a smaller place to focus solely on my project. Sounds weird, but, it all makes sense. 🤣 🤣
We had a tan '72 with the 304 and power steering ... ours made a solid Oregon huntin' rig!!! Don't let the driveline fool you ... they are tough enough for most average folks! I say keep it and run it!!! 😉
This is so cool. My Dad had a pfs blue and white scout in the mid 80s. One of my earliest memories when I was 3 was him taking me wheeling through the russian river outside of Geyserville California in it. Wouldn't mind seeing a full build on this bad boy!
Well the wife likes it so I vote on it sticking around. I like the rendering you showed us of it slammed too! Honestly you can’t go wrong buying those they are doing nothing but going up in value, plus that one is nice and solid. (Compared to what i see in my area)
my dad and granddad had a 78 scout ii. the thing rotted off the frame. one with a 304, and a 345... but.. you could push a house over with one. Pretty amazing trucks, thanks Puddin!!
Love it! Now you are moving up in my list of favorites! We had a 73 Scoutii, 304, 2 wd, green before painted brown, upper tailgate rusted off and repaired, constant 4 mpg, but would pull a freight train (maybe). Finally let it set for 3 or 4 years then sold as is. Charged battery and it started right up and the new owner spun the tires as he left the driveway with 144,000 miles on it. Thanks for all your effort on saving this one.
Ive been dealing with trying to get my license back for 3 years, its not easy and its very mentally draining, thank you puddin for posting consistently every week for 3 years, you have helped me every single week without even knowing, not tryna petty pit here, just happy to get to watch you get it done!
Hey Puddin. I've restored a fee cars and had to remove the hoods amd truck lids from countless. One easy way I've found to line the hinges up is to drill a small hole through the hinge and inside layer of hood or deck lid. When you go to install the hood just use the same size bit to stick in the holes to line the hinges back uo where they originally were. I've used a sharpie before but I have bad luck amd the sharpie always either gets rubbed off or I forget amd sand it off when painting the good. This also works for some door hinges. Just us a small bit amd the hole will never be noticeable. Just thought I would share rhat with you. But then you probably don't have the time to read all the comments you get. Keep up the great entertainment.
PUDDIN YOU GOT A WINNER RIGHT HERE BROTHER I ACTUALLY LOVE SCOUTS I'VE ALWAYS WANTED ONE THIS IS GOING TO BE GREAT GETTING THIS TO RUN. I'LL BUY THAT THING IF PUDDIN POPS DON'T GET IT FIRST THAT SCOUT IS KOOL
Watching him repair the carb is truly amazing. What will we do when people like this are gone? Let's hope the younger generation steps up and learns from people like this, before they are gone. Experience is gold in any trade.
As others have mentioned, letting this become a replacement for the Tow Rolla sounds like a good idea. May have to add a lower crossbar on the bumper to hold your pushing tire.
This is actually a big misception with working on ih scouts and trucks not all of them are oh powered by the factory I've seen Ford and AMC motors in them, Ford and Chrysler starters same thing as the transmission and AMC jeep,ih trucks, and jeep pickup trucks usually got a gm based steering column and ignition key cylinder switch
The dude that rebuild your carb, is a BOSS. It's so awesome to see people that know how this stuff works. I'm sure we could all learn a thing or two from him. Good for him. Thanks
My dad had a scout for a hunting rig when he was younger. Said they would run over anything in the way to get to their stand or kill. If there was a tree in the way they couldn’t run over he said they would climb up it hook a winch on it and would normally pull the tree down but a couple of times it pulled the scout up the tree lol. Said there was couple of times they had all four wheels off the ground just to see if it would do it. I don’t think it was roadworthy so they didn’t care about it.
These were geared real low, good replacement for Toyrolla. Speed limit was 55 in the nation. Sounded like that nice little six would sound like it was going to leave you behind at 65.
I worked at a carb shop in pa called Bowens, all you need is a brass bushing set, remers, drill press and arbor press from harbor freight. When the bushings are worn you get inconsistent idle.
That scout is mint condition as far as scouts go especially here in n.e. indiana lol ! But the really rust BAD! they are one of my favorite trucks of all times ! 74 scout 2 was my first truck! this video brought back lots of memories thanks Puddin!
My grandfather had one and my parents drove to the hospital when my mom went into labor with me in the scout in the middle of a blizzard.. I wanted to fix it up but it got sold. Sad day but this is making me relive those memories. 😊
I had a 77 scout 2 I believe it had a 304 8 cylinder. I lived in Bethany Oklahoma back then and I'd try to get that thing stuck at draper lake ,I think that was the name, never could get it stuck. Was a good vehicle till the body rotted away. Literally
Like puddin, I'm a shade tree mechanic as well. Mostly self taught. But I spent half a winter, in Anchorage, Alaska, apprenticing under an old shade tree mechanic. His go to cleaner was gasoline. Works awesome. Even in 10 below! 😂 Edit. Mount your saws all to the table, and tie up the trigger so it stays on. Instant sonic cleaner
The Scout II had the following engine options: the 196 cu in (3.2 L) 4-cylinder, 232 cu in (3.8 L) 6-cylinder (early production), 258 cu in (4.2 L) 6-cylinder (later production), 304 cu in (5.0 L) V8, and 345 cu in (5.7 L) V8.
Thank you the 196 cubic inch is a 304 cubic inch V8 with 4 cylinders hacked off and most of them still have the factory V8 distributor cap with 4 terminals capped off
How AWESOME for you to have had the chance to learn from a true master making those bushings for you from scratch and fixing up that carb.. SO awesome Jacob.. seriously, that's some real wisdom there!!
Some of these came stock with a Nissan Diesel engine. I don't remember what year that would be. I vote to slam it V-8 swap it and drive it like a rental.
Man, i used to have on just like it, mine had a fancy white stripe down the side, and white wagon wheel steel rims. Ran like a champ, removable top was key, mine had a rollbar, V8 auto, I believe it was the 348, could've been a 318 Funnest summer vehicle in the Rockies of all time. My buddy and I were just talking about it the other day.
I put down a towel on my bench when working on carbs to keep parts from rolling away. Great if you can sneak a white one from the bathroom😂. Great video.
Brings back lots of memories of the 1974 International Scout II that I had back in the day. It was John Deere yellow in color with a white top and white wagon wheels just like the wheels on yours. It was a sad day when I had to sell it. Thanks for a great video and a trip down memory lane. 😃
I can't understand why people hate on some of your ideas so much? Personally I love the green and the slammed image you had done looks incredible. I'd SBC, slam that on air-ride with 20 inch which steelies and that's killer right there. Hot damm that's a cool little rig. You guys are blessed in the US with access to these kinda cars. We just drool over what you guys throw away. Really cool video again Jacob, fantastic work. Really grateful for your time 🙏😊
Get Slick 50 to do his Majic and give that Old Green Scout a break job. That sure would be nice to see on a shirt climbing the Pudding Hill with Puddin Pop to the rescue keeping it from flipping. Your channel keeps on getting better and better!
I like the green. I grew up with mom and dad having a 1974 Jeep Cherokee in a green maybe a shade darker. It reminds me of that. So I like it. I always like the look of those. I like that the way it sits. Making it nice inside and run and stop good and its perfect
Your wife loves it. It might be her cool cruiser - that means you gotta make it safe for her, and we're here for it!🎉
Especially if she gets the right shade of green shirt 🤣🤣🤣
You could sell that to Derrick at VGG.
Those things are awesome. Killer off-roading machines. Hard to find one that solid.
I loved every Scout I ever owned (total of 5: a slant 4, a straight 6, and 3 v-8's). The issue was that they each slowly evaporated into giant missing areas around all the great mechanicals. Rustproofing was just not effective here ...
@@CactusJack1021 my uncle had one that had no bed floor. They just put metal siding down to replace it. (Bog machine anyway)

I just wish there was more good people in the world like yall
406 garage can tell you any thing you want to know!
agreed..that guy was amazing!
did you see his tools wow
The Scout turned out way gooder than it shoulda! Hope to see more on this one in the future. ❤
No matter what the subject is, when you meet someone that really, REALLY knows what they are doing you can tell. And when they are good people, it's a blessing.
You should totally keep it and build it. If Mrs. Puddin likes it that’s even more reason to keep it
Ms puddin..HAPPY WIFE. HAPPY. LIFE😅😅😅
Pure genius watching him cut those bushings…you don’t see that no more for sure!

20 minutes in and i was going to say there's no way its an international six, if its a 258 puddin could have himself a neat 4.6 stroker
A friend of mine bought one of these 20+ years ago and it had a Chrysler slant six in it. I don't know if it was original or not.
@@shanehansen2141 Definitely not. The slant 6 was a garbage engine. My thoughts are somebody lost a bet and HAD to put that engine in.

Would be good competition for the towrolla

That scout is mint condition as far as scouts go especially here in n.e. indiana lol ! But the really rust BAD! they are one of my favorite trucks of all times ! 74 scout 2 was my first truck! this video brought back lots of memories thanks Puddin!
I had a 64 Scout 1 slant 4. It would climb. It was that dark green!
Dana30 front, Dana 44 rear, and a Dana 20 transfer case. I think!
My grandfather had one and my parents drove to the hospital when my mom went into labor with me in the scout in the middle of a blizzard.. I wanted to fix it up but it got sold. Sad day but this is making me relive those memories. 😊
Loved bringing back some of the multi cam and set ups and shots! Thanks!
I had a 77 scout 2 I believe it had a 304 8 cylinder. I lived in Bethany Oklahoma back then and I'd try to get that thing stuck at draper lake ,I think that was the name, never could get it stuck. Was a good vehicle till the body rotted away. Literally
That scout ii is my dream car. The color. The patina. Everything. Absolutely love it.
That’s a keeper!
Like puddin, I'm a shade tree mechanic as well. Mostly self taught. But I spent half a winter, in Anchorage, Alaska, apprenticing under an old shade tree mechanic. His go to cleaner was gasoline. Works awesome. Even in 10 below! 😂 Edit. Mount your saws all to the table, and tie up the trigger so it stays on. Instant sonic cleaner
You may need to take a page out of Mortske’s book and find you a tow truck to get running. It would be pretty useful for PFS.
_OMG, I love it!_ So stoked to see you finally bust out the Scout! Can't wait to see you fix her up.. She's sweet! 🤩
The Scout II had the following engine options: the 196 cu in (3.2 L) 4-cylinder, 232 cu in (3.8 L) 6-cylinder (early production), 258 cu in (4.2 L) 6-cylinder (later production), 304 cu in (5.0 L) V8, and 345 cu in (5.7 L) V8.
Thank you the 196 cubic inch is a 304 cubic inch V8 with 4 cylinders hacked off and most of them still have the factory V8 distributor cap with 4 terminals capped off
And the rear bumper on alot of those IH scouts and trucks, the diamond plate pattern on that bumper will cut you ask me how I know lol
Id say it was parked for brake issues and the leaking bushing being shot on the carburetor

Because the wheels and tires on the ranchero are off the blue and white scout out at d n h classics so they are already the right bolt pattern
Puddin pops on the channel is always a blessing speaking of…. Ready to see ol Roy get that lele swap and boil the tires off that machine
The Oil smelled so old, it was like it was like smelling a Dinosaurs Butt. LOL
Bad Apple it's the perfect name for this rig
Hell yeah! Scout 2 time!
How AWESOME for you to have had the chance to learn from a true master making those bushings for you from scratch and fixing up that carb.. SO awesome Jacob.. seriously, that's some real wisdom there!!
Some of these came stock with a Nissan Diesel engine. I don't remember what year that would be. I vote to slam it V-8 swap it and drive it like a rental.
I love when puddin pops shows up.he seems like the sweetest dad lol.
That’s a 100% rust free scout in the scout world haha. Love it but at the same time I hate seeing them cause it just makes the prices go up. Ugh
Needs a hillbilly vammo paint job
"let me just rub this ramp down the rockers if this Lincoln real quick" 😅
Man, i used to have on just like it, mine had a fancy white stripe down the side, and white wagon wheel steel rims. Ran like a champ, removable top was key, mine had a rollbar, V8 auto, I believe it was the 348, could've been a 318 Funnest summer vehicle in the Rockies of all time. My buddy and I were just talking about it the other day.
I put down a towel on my bench when working on carbs to keep parts from rolling away. Great if you can sneak a white one from the bathroom😂. Great video.
Here we go with another goodun!!
That shop press is absolutely amazing. Man love watching old guys work, they have the best tricks
Really didn’t think you were gonna go that far with it but I’m glad you did , I definitely would like to find one …..
I love that scout. Makes me want to put on a flannel and park it next to a river campsite like you talked about 😍
Brings back lots of memories of the 1974 International Scout II that I had back in the day. It was John Deere yellow in color with a white top and white wagon wheels just like the wheels on yours. It was a sad day when I had to sell it. Thanks for a great video and a trip down memory lane. 😃
I can't understand why people hate on some of your ideas so much?
Personally I love the green and the slammed image you had done looks incredible. I'd SBC, slam that on air-ride with 20 inch which steelies and that's killer right there. Hot damm that's a cool little rig. You guys are blessed in the US with access to these kinda cars. We just drool over what you guys throw away. Really cool video again Jacob, fantastic work. Really grateful for your time 🙏😊
definitely need more videos on the scout!
Good to have another builder from the 405 making good.
Get Slick 50 to do his Majic and give that Old Green Scout a break job. That sure would be nice to see on a shirt climbing the Pudding Hill with Puddin Pop to the rescue keeping it from flipping. Your channel keeps on getting better and better!
I love Scouts.That color with those spoked wheels is just the greatest. All it needs is a built 350.
Great revival, cool Scout, keep her factory and give her the love , Green pea great choice for the lovely wife , thanks for sharing 👍💨💨
I like the green. I grew up with mom and dad having a 1974 Jeep Cherokee in a green maybe a shade darker. It reminds me of that. So I like it. I always like the look of those. I like that the way it sits. Making it nice inside and run and stop good and its perfect
i think it's worth restoring . you are very good at fabricating parts and the sheet metal work with floors and panels
