sorry i missed ya eric i drove my new rig over to your place but you were gone ..
but the 1967 scout 800 made it home with no problems at all except when i turned the fuel tanlk knob to switch tanks i acidently shut it off ..oops
even pulling the big hills she never slowed down . shes not fast but alot of torque .. opening up the glove box it has a factory sticker saying has a rear track lock in it . when you take off it spins both rear tires !
for a rig that has been in storage since 1985 you gotta love it !
and it made the 300 mile journey with flying colors !
thanks kevin and Kris for all your help ! and letting us crash there .
so for the vehicle update on this one is fix the minor rust on it
repaint it
hang new exhaust
build old school style roll bar
and drive it
i hope to keep it stock form exept maybe upgrade front drums to disc brakes
