Josh The Para Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 Hi What is the value on a White Scout Car? Also are there any people who have built replica's? Cheers Josh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Degsy Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 Whatever somebody will pay:D They don't seem to come on to the market that often nor do they appear to be in big demand. No idea about replicas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redherring Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Seem to be common enough in Australia. I have the remains of three. 1st was rebuilt as a light truck for farm duties complete with truck cabin - basically a heavy duty 4WD utility. 2nd was used at a sawmill for shunting trees - judging by the bent cross member on the front frame. 3rd was also cut down at back with long tray attached for feeding out hay also converted to RHD - hack job unfortunately... will remedy some day. Many have been rebuilt. Seek out photos of the 'Corowa' Military vehicle meet (Corowa, NSW, Australia). Robert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big ray Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 I seem to remember seeing one up for sale a while back, around the £20.000 ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happydayz123 Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Iv'e just been offered one,still thinking about it. 20,000 is about right,and there a dam sight easier to move/run than a Halftrack !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Ashby Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 and there a dam sight easier to move/run than a Halftrack !! And a dam site faster too, they cruise nicely at 50mph all day long and the ride is good. If you are daring enough and have deep pockets for the fuel bill 65 to 70mph is achievable in short bursts, stopping can sometimes require written notification at that speed however. At current prices you should expect to pay between £20-25K for a clean example. Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big ray Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Hi, 3 mpg downhill with the wind behind you!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big ray Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 You should get about 10 mpg out of the Scout Car, its fitted with the 6.ltr engine as apposed to the 10.ltr in the Halftrack, and you can "feather" the accelerator along the flat in the Scout Car. The Halftrack as to be driven hard all of the time because the tracks create a lot of resistance, in fact if you take your foot off the accelerator you will notice the deceleration.

GoranWC51 Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 A friend of mine, who knows his MV's, told me that the Scout Car was the only US MV not equipped with a governor to reduce the top speed. So you can drive it a 70 mph without prob's, but stopping - that's another matter! Goran N Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
