“I drove my first Scout 20 years ago and instantly fell in love. It was a low mileage, ’78 Scout II, Selective Edition, 345 4 speed - it was perfect! Just the right size and I loved the turning radius and ease of driving. The original IH drivetrains are really cool and they have a distinct sound and feel. Then, I bought a few of them and my wife and I had a vision that we could restore a Scout to be a daily driver and a primary vehicle. I chose out of my small fleet a ’79 Scout II and we started to restore it and modernize it as much as possible. Eventually, I did it! I finished a beautiful Scout II with a fuel injected Chevy 400, NV4500, Atlas transfer case, and Dynatrac axles. That’s when I knew we were onto something.”

The Birth Of A
Legend
In 2003, Sean and his wife Heather, bought a small International Scout parts company in the Bay Area of California called Anything Scout. The mission was simple: provide quality parts at a fair price; do it with good, friendly customer service, and keep these amazing vehicles on the road for years to come.Over the years, the mission has remained the same, but the innovation of parts and services has evolved into what is regarded as the leading bespoke builder of International Scouts.
Since 2016 New Legend has been building investment grade Scout restorations from the ground up. Though each restoration is unique they all start at the same place, with real steel. Each one of our restorations begins with a donor vehicle that came off the production line back in the 60s/70s. Our goal is to continue the legacy of that Scout through its new owner, catalyzed by our build process.
New Legend fosters opportunities to make the mundane memorable for you and your family. Just going to the store or picking up your kids from soccer becomes instantly cool in a classic 4×4. We’re dedicated to keeping these trucks on the road to enable new generations to have the same great memories exploring life, just as those before us!
Our future is driven by a low production, high quality model that respectfully tells the story of each truck as an individual – not simply another restoration project.
To build beautifully capable Scouts and foster family style relationships while doing so, that’s the New Legend way.
That's how a new legend is born
