This thread will go slow. I aquired this Scout in boise id while I was on a project in gillette wy. Needless to say I drove it 1200 miles back and then shipped it to tx when my contract was up. Looking at a 79' Scout II with a 304 bored .30 out (per po). Mallory ignition (optical) and tf 727. So far I have replaced the ignition, replaced the rag joint, shift boots and transmission cable, along with rebuilding the carb and some cosmetic changes (new windshield and gaskets, etc.). In the process of painting the rims and sanding down and undercoating the body and frame. Rust prevention as this is the only Scout I have ever had in this condition (rust free :ihih:).

Getting the rest of the Scout finished up and the wheels on. Looking better already.
