This time it will be a brand owned by Volkswagen and be electric powered.

Will they do it right (like Bronco) or will it just be a re-skinned VW. I guess we'll see.

Those old IH Scouts were super-cool.

But man, I've never seen a vehicle that rusted so badly or so fast. I'm surprised there are any left that aren't a pile of fine, brown powder.

I had a '67 800 in 1987 with 36,000 original miles. it was starting to rust badly in front of the rear wheels where the debris collects next to the gas tanks.

It was a great little vehicle, especially after adding a half cab to replace the station wagon top.

When I was visiting Arizona and New Mexico a few years ago it was strange to see un-rusted corn binders. eek
