Used Car of the Day: 1967 Scout International 800 Harvester

There's very little ad copy for this 1967 Scout International 800 Harvester. So little, in fact, that I almost didn't feature it.


All we're told is that it "runs good." The pictures show it needs some cosmetic work, though it seems to be in decent shape.

You'll have to call the owner if you actually have an interest in buying this thing. Again, we're not here to sell these cars -- we're not Bring a Trailer -- but to simply highlight cool cars we see for sale in our parent company's forums. And for me, Scouts are cool as hell.

If you think the same way I do, you can browse the pictures here. Whether or not you have any intent to purchase this Scout, you can at least kill five minutes of your boss's time and gawk at it.

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

    If this ridiculous relic is a "used car of the day" then I am His Majesty the Emperor of China.


    But I am not surprised at any of Tim's laughable finds any more.

      The normal greeting to the Chinese Emperor was 皇上 Huáng shang roughly 'Imperial majesty'. In his absence the Emperor was often referred to as 万岁爷 Wàn suì yé 'Lord for countless years' particularly by his eunuchs [sure Tassos would know THAT one]

    Keep the old Scout, how much for the garage?

  • ToolGuy This podcast was pretty interesting. I listened to it this morning, and now I am commenting. Listened to the podcast, now commenting on the podcast. See how this works? LOL.
  • VoGhost If you want this to succeed, enlarge the battery and make the vehicle in Spartanburg so you buyers get the $7,500 discount.
  • Jeff Look at the the 65 and 66 Pontiacs some of the most beautiful and well made Pontiacs. 66 Olds Toronado and 67 Cadillac Eldorado were beautiful as well. Mercury had some really nice looking cars during the 60s as well. The 69 thru 72 Grand Prix were nice along with the first generation of Monte Carlo 70 thru 72. Midsize GM cars were nice as well.The 69s were still good but the cheapening started in 68. Even the 70s GMs were good but fit and finish took a dive especially the interiors with more plastics and more shared interiors.
  • Proud2BUnion I typically recommend that no matter what make or model you purchase used, just assure that is HAS a prior salvage/rebuilt title. Best "Bang for your buck"!
  • Redapple2 jeffbut they dont want to ... their pick up is 4th behind ford/ram, Toyota. GM has the Best engineers in the world. More truck profit than the other 3. Silverado + Sierra+ Tahoe + Yukon sales = 2x ford total @ $15,000 profit per. Tons o $ to invest in the BEST truck. No. They make crap. Garbage. Evil gm Vampire
