Wednesday 30th November 1960

The first Scout all-terrain vehicle rolled off the assembly line at International Harvester’s plant in the US. A versatile, affordable vehicle for both passenger and goods transportation, it was available in both two- and four-wheel drive and featured a 4-cylinder engine, with 3-speed, floor-mounted transmission. The Scout I (80: 1960-1965 and 800: 1965-1971) became the best-selling vehicle in International Harvester’s history, enjoying a full 10 years of production before being replaced by the improved Scout II in 1971.
