The record

International stretched the Scout II in 1976 to answer the Blazer and Bronco’s room: the Traveler seated five with a full top and lift-up hatch, the Terra carried a six-foot bed under a fibreglass cab roof. Both took the Midas and Gold Star editions and the 1980 RS Special Limited Edition Traveler in Tahitian Red closed the line.

AI rendering impression

An AI rendering impression starts from a 3D model of this vehicle, which an image model then paints into a scene. It is an artist's impression of the type, made to give a feel for the vehicle in its element — not a photograph, and not a record of any particular vehicle.

Proportions, fittings, markings, colours and the setting can all drift from the original in the process. For the vehicle's actual details, rely on the specification, the photographs and the cited sources on this page.
