I've got two International Travelalls. Both are 4-speed 345 V8s, 2wd. The blue one has a better body, the gold one has better glass and a good interior. Combine both for a sweet tall wagon, one is a 1968, the other a 1969? They are scheduled to be scrapped if no one wants em. They are in Woods X UT.

THIS is what we need to get to the front page.

Also, have you thought about submitting these to Bring a Trailer or the H.A.M.B.?

I have them on KSL for $550 and $650, but I would take $900 for both. $900 would be what I could get pulling a few parts and scrapping em.

They should be on HAMB. They are cool enough that I would rather someone come and save them for not too much money.

Tavarish would say that they're rust free and point out that the airbags haven't deployed.

Clean titles and definitely no airbags have been triggered.

Wait, no, you can't scrap them! Those bodies are perfect! What's the title status, are the frames as clean as the bodies, and are they anywhere close to running/driving/stopping?

I think I have both titles. The frames are pretty clean, the gold one has a good amount of rot, the blue one not so much. They need tires, the gold one has tubes so its tires still hold air.

Kinja'd!!!

They both could run, they have have good engines and and gear boxes. The rear drums were dragging, they may need new lines/brake cylinders. Someone stole the gold's radiator (scum bags) but with a new radiator it would be complete.

Change the fluids, clean the carbs, go through the brakes, add a salvage yard battery, and then start them up. I just need to hunt down the mysterious coffee can that holds their keys.

We were going to use them to build a Scout hauler, something to take a couple Scouts down to Moab with.

Man so cool. I'll be in Moab next week! Are you guys close at all?

If I lived anywhere near here I'd save them in a heartbeat... I'll see who I can ask/what I can do anyway.

Please drop me a line [andrew@jalopnik.com] any time there are internationals that need saving! Especially Scouts... my 80 either needs a lot of donor help or to become a donor to something more salvageable.

Andrew, I have a pile of Scout parts, mostly mechanical if you need something. I have a decent Scout diamond plate steel factory bumper sitting on my porch that needs a home.

As for Moab, I've already been down there. I'm here in Northern Utah and 5 hours away.
