I'm interested in trading my 64 Scout crawler for someone's nice trailer build. The Scout is worth about $4500. I know this isn't classifieds but I thought I'd get a lot more interest here. Anyone? Exhaustive Details/video/pictures below:

1964 International Harvester Scout
*There is no odometer in the vehicle. The odometer built into the speedo is reading somewhere around 9,000 miles which I assume is how many miles it has had on it since the previous owner built it up.
I have not driven this vehicle much. I bought it and my wife did not approve. It runs awesome and I will miss it. It turns heads everywhere it goes and is virtually impossible not to notice it on the road. I have the title in my possession, but have never registered it in my name. It has permanant Montana license plates. Almost everything on this vehicle has been modified, please see the list below.
Do not buy this vehicle if you are expecting a near perfect vehicle or something that won't require a some work and fine tuning. I'd really like to sell this to someone with experience with these vehicles and understands what is involved. Also, don't buy this vehicle expecting to drive it home. It needs to be put on a trailer to be moved until the brake is fixed and to drive on the freeway it needs the wheels/tires balanced. Handles and drives very nicely for a vehicle this tall. Also, please be aware that this has hydraulic assist steering so it handles slightly different from a normal street vehicle. This is being sold as is and I've tried to describe it best as I could through text and images.
Located in Provo, UT.
Motor-chevy 350 apx 12000miles. vortec heads ported/polished with staples valves, billet steel knife edge(to lower resistance) crank, billet rods, kb hypertectic pistons, hydraulic roller cam, roller lifters, roller rockers, rpm intake, holly street avenger (custom) carb, headers, dual exhaust. This motor is 400 hp balanced and and ready to rumble with a extremely light rotating assembly. There is a lot of money put into this motor. This motor is awesome and this car is loud and turns heads.

Rear high angle driveline with 1ton cv joint

front dana 44, 4.56 gears
hydro assist steering and rear cutting brakes
Suspension- 6'' spring over lift, Rancho RS9000 adjustable shocks, front scout 2 springs shackle flip to rear, rear 800 scout springs re-arched with double main military eye wrap, heavy duty shackles.
Tire/wheel- 37.14.5.15/ toyo mt with aprx. 6000 miles on them. rockstopper beadlocks. this is a full set of 5.
Custom front& rear bumper- front shackle mount/tow bar mount with tow bar, rear tire d&c tire carrier/jerry can holder with reciever hitch.
Interior- 6 point roll cage, racing seats, 4 point harnesses
Custom dash, auto meter electric speedo, auto meter tack with shift light, cd player hurst pistol grip shifter, amp, sub, cb, with all wiring run though roll cage, line-x spray in bedliner.
Onboard air- york air compressor
Custom rear 15 gal fuel tank built of thick steel
All of the wipers, squirters, headlights, hi-beams, and heater work.
Needs:
Wheels/tires have never been balanced, they start shaking at about 65. One of the beadlocks leaks about 2 psi a week and the other about 2 psi a month. Could just need the rings tightened.
The billet cutting brake actuator levers leak a small amount of brake fluid.
The bracket for the on board air compressor needs to be reworked. It isn't aligning the pulley correctly with the other pulleys which causes the belt to twist under extreme power. I have bypassed the compressor for now (it is not necessary for operation of the vehicle) with a shorter belt I had laying around so the vehicle will drive fine.
The front drivers side brake piston recently locked up so this will need to be rebuilt or replaced.
It has a small amount of rust in a few spots, nothing structural. The vehicle has about as much rust as your average late 90's Jeep wrangler.
The wires in the engine compartment could use wire loom, they were never covered. There may be some sort of electrical short or drain in the system. The battery usually goes dead when it sits around for a while. There is a quick disconnect on it to prevent this from happening. When I drove it every day for a couple of weeks I never had any issues. I will provide a new battery with the vehicle purchase.
There is no top with the vehicle. The seats are slightly sun faded.
Needs some attention to details all over the vehicle, once again nothing functional, but some cosmetic things could be improved. There may be other issues with this vehicle that I am not aware of!
