Mexico, I'm not braggin on this rig. My goal here is to link up some pics and info that is already public access on the net...and bring them to a place that others can see, I don't see a problem with that. (said 7 months ago by Rich Nelson).
If the rightful owner wants them removed then so be it, seeing rigs like this make me proud to be and IH guy...thats all. It's shame that the Off-Road magazines don't showcase some of these peoples beautiful work for us to see. (said 7 months ago by Rich Nelson).
I guess its because it's International, which is not Jeep, Dodge, Ford, or Chevy. Hopefully more rigs like this might gain us a little more respect. And this is coming from an ex-Early Bronco fanatic, converted International freak! (said 7 months ago by Rich Nelson).
Rich, I appreciate the post. I found the Vanco Hydroboost for my Scout because of your post. Thanks.. (said 7 months ago by Jason Muehr).
its always nice to see how someone else went with a resto or trail build thanks for the posting i think this is a beautiful rig (said 7 months ago by josh kirk).
I don't know about you guys, but rigs like this really help get me motivated to work on mine. If you haven't checked out the like, do it. There are some awesome builds on there. Check out "PD's Drivetrain Upgrade" it is simply amazing...IHOnlyNorth doe (said 7 months ago by Rich Nelson).
Woops, I meant "link" not "like" sorry for the typo! WhatI also meant to finish was: HOnlyNorth does some quality work. (said 7 months ago by Rich Nelson).
This is by far the cleanest and mot well engineered Scout buildups i have ever seen. Very nice work, taking it on the 'Con anytime soon? (said 7 months ago by Dan Seiler).
Simply because you find a photo you like on the internet doesn't give you a right to take or use it. Almost every photo you posted is clearly marked on their site with "www.ihonlynorth.com" which you have removed or obscured. That is theft of a private im (said 7 months ago by Stephen Scroggins).
image. You want to show off a Scout in this kind of shape; build or buy on yourself. (said 7 months ago by Stephen Scroggins).
Rich Nelson was very clear on where these images came from and he didn't remove anything from the pics. (said 7 months ago by skip).
when you post pics on the site it automatically puts Anything Scout logos on the pics. If anything else, this is free publicity for. IH North (said 7 months ago by skip).
Thanks for the input Skip. If you like we can pretend the logo is visible and he has a right to use the photos. My statement is a matter of copyright law, what's yours? (said 7 months ago by Stephen Scroggins).
I'm simply calling it what it is, not his Scout and not his photos. (said 7 months ago by Stephen Scroggins).
I am no lawyer, but as far as I can tell Rich is not (as pertaining to the description and his comments) claiming this Scout or pictures of it to be his. In fact he clearly states that they are not his, and (said 7 months ago by Kragen).
gives the "credit" of whatever you want to call it to IHOnlyNorth. As I see it this is merely a link to another site, and serves the purpose much Google or any other search engine that gives links. (said 7 months ago by Kragen).
In fact after reading through this build, I am going to be buying a Reverse Shackle kit from IHOnlyNorth. I have been looking for a kit like this. (said 7 months ago by Kragen).
It's actually very simple: the photos are not his to use, period. (said 7 months ago by Stephen Scroggins).
Rich posts on a lot of different rigs he thinks us Scout enthusiast might like and learn from i.e. Terra Cotta, Yellow Jacket, Intriguing Scout, not just this one. Get over it (said 7 months ago by skip).
Then Rich steals alot of photos. Stop defending it. (said 7 months ago by Stephen Scroggins).
Is this the same Stephen Scroggins owner of Tallulah on this site? You have a very nice Scout, in fact I just voted on it and couldn't help notice that you have 3,700+ votes for your rig, which is quite interesting considering on average after voting for (said 7 months ago by Rich Nelson).
rigs on this site they have somewhere around 200. Since you feel that it is your duty to tell everyone else what they do wrong, maybe you can tell me what is wrong with this picture? (said 7 months ago by Rich Nelson).
Ithank you for the compliment. I didn't know and can't explain why Tallulah has that many votes. If they were my doing she would be rated a 5. I also only posted photos that belong to me. (said 7 months ago by Stephen Scroggins).
Since your obviously digging for a conspiracy to draw attwntion away from yourself I deleted her listing and put a new one up. Now go pirate somemore photos. (said 7 months ago by Stephen Scroggins).
this is the nices one in here i love it (said 6 months ago by Nick).
ive got a gole now (said 6 months ago by Nick).
DAM nice Scout II! And, it's the same color combo as my 75' Scout II. This has to be the culmination of all things perfect for Scouts! Perfect suspension mods, perfect fender flares, incredible interior, awesome crawling capabilities. Just incredible! (said 6 months ago by Guy Ralstin).
I gave it 5 stars! (said 6 months ago by Guy Ralstin).
i need to have one, somebody please help me get started (said 4 months ago by Juan Ramirez).
what a motivating beauty. (said 4 months ago by Jason Perez).
I've seen this scout up close several times the latest at the Sierra Fall Rallye and it's phenomenal. (said 4 months ago by Rob Gojkovich).
I only wish I had the money it took to build. I would spend it the exact same way!!! (said 2 months ago by chris Northcutt).
Anyone know what color this is? I was thinking terra cotta, but it seems to bright. Is it an IH color or something else. Thanks! (said about 1 month ago by Jason).
Actually your first guess was right - it is terra cotta. If you go to ihonlynorth.com and look on their build thread for this scout it will state the color of both the top and the body on the last page. (said about 1 month ago by Eric Reid).
Nicest Scout I've seen I do believe for a II (said 16 days ago by Joseph C. Archuleta).
