Not real supprising. The short wheel base works well for plowing and IH used some interesting axle combos in thier trucks. I had a 70 800A. It had a posi trac rear end and a limited slip front. Some of the guys I knew thought it was a joke with the in line 6 until they saw what it would go through stock. It was a much better 4X4 than some of the late 70's Blazers and Broncos! Wish I had another one. Another good snow plow "truck" is the CJ5 and 7 Jeeps.

Scout came from Kittery Point...it's in good shape, little rust here & there, but very solid.

The biggest difference between your scout and your cub is the "heater".
I have always liked the simple box design of the scout.
A buddy had one years ago but it was all rusted.
The thing I have heard about the scout is that it does not have a frame, it is a unibody which can sometimes gets knocked out of line with plowing.
Is that true?

I just found this on CL so I guess they do have a frame.
