Testing the waters on a 1971 Scout II

What's up guys. I'm new to scouts and I bought this from a buddy but I’m in a little over my head. A lot has been done to it but there is still more left to do and I don’t think I can afford to finish it off. Anyway here are the specs:

1971 345 automatic.
Dana 44 front and rear with disc up front.
4" lift springs in front and SOA in the back.
Relatively new dual flow masters

runs awesome and sounds even better. Head liner is still intact and I don’t think the top has ever been off. No carpet.

Body has surface rust and a few dents but nothing major and only two very small spots that should be cut out and replaced.
It sat for 10 years so I went through and replaced:

front calipers
rear brake cylinders
fuel pump
radiator
all hoses
all belts
front brake lines
battery
oil filter
u-joints
brake booster
brake master cylinder
one front wheel bearing was bad
one front axle seal was bad
both axels have been checked and gear oil replaced
new hydraulic lifts on the rear lift gate


still needs:

upholstery
new tires
shocks
t-case linkage needs to be adjusted
tranny flushed and filter replaced

it's a great rig with tons of potential.

Im sure there are afew minor things that I haven’t discovered yet. Anyway I was hoping to get $4000 obo. Let me know what you think.

The truck is in southern California. Email to demian3 at gmail dot com

thanks,

demian
