The 1978 Scout Will Make You a Better Man

Or, at least, a cooler one.

Some objects are so cool, no hateful dweeb can bring them down. It’s damn hard to undermine Timberlands; Ray Bans can turn any decent visage into a memorable face; a Louisville slugger is mighty in the feeblest hands. Automotively, the 1978 International Scout brings that unimpeachable swagger—specifically, this 1978 International Scout, available for sale in San Diego. Sun yellow paint, a contrasting white roof and (sweetly) faded seventies graphics over matching white steelies are perfect for a summer truck, and for $12,900, we’d shift into overdrive to get this before some other lucky punk snags it.
