Sweet rig Bro! (said about 1 year ago by Joseph Whitehead).
Really nice scout. I have posted mine on this website. Maybe we can get together sometime this summer and go wheeling - I also live in Reno. (said about 1 year ago by Eric Reid).
Sorry - I needed to include my name on the above caption. My name is Eric Reid. (said about 1 year ago by Eric Reid).
That is a good looking scout. I'm hoping mine will look that good some day. It looks good and goes where ever you point it. (said about 1 year ago by Edward J. Lobrigo).
Thanks Lance - I will be giving you a call. (said about 1 year ago by Eric Reid).
Beautiful scout. Thanks for the inspiration! (said about 1 year ago by Jason).
That is a badass cherried out Scout, but it could use some bigger tires. You should run some 37's. (said about 1 year ago by Rich Nelson).
Rich your right, I have been talking to the guys at alcan springs and I am going to buy some new springs with 2"-3" more lift so I can run 37" tires with 17"X9" rims and put in some new bump stops so I don't tear up any sheet metal in the process. I don't (said about 1 year ago by Lance Lopez).
I don't know when the new springs will get on but you can bet your ass it won't be to far down the road!!! (said about 1 year ago by Lance Lopez).
Lance, I just noticed your future mods list...I totally missed that. But that would be sick, put pics up when you do, you have one of the nicest Scout's I have seen. You did a great job. (said about 1 year ago by Rich Nelson).
If you move up to 37"s i dont think your spare wont fit on your bumper. I am about to buy the same bumper and one of my questions to Anything scout was what size tire it would hold. (said about 1 year ago by kris).
That's pretty easy to fix. Simply cut the rectangular tube that holds the gas can and extend it acouple inches, weld it up, throw a little paint on and your good to go. (said about 1 year ago by Lance Lopez).
Also if the bottom of the tire does hit the top of the bumper when you swing it closed you could cut and reweld the 2" square tube that holds the spare, but I don't know if that will be required, there is about 1" of clearence between the bottom of my 35" (said about 1 year ago by Lance Lopez).
I think Sean should consider reworking his bumpers to allow 37" tires to fit. (said about 1 year ago by Lance Lopez).
I agree! I remember when 35's were considered monsters in the late 90's, but not anymore. A 35" is a good trail tire but a 37" is definitely better, heck factory truck tires are almost 35" now a days anyhow. When I went from 35" to 40" MTR's on my 72 Bron (said 11 months ago by Rich Nelson).
...When I went from 35" to 40" MTR's on my 72 Bronco about 6 years ago the improvement in rock crawling capability was night and day. (I have since seen the light and sold the Bronco, and I have become a die hard IH freak)! (said 11 months ago by Rich Nelson).
I've been trying to decide on a color for my rig. I was considering blue or copper but your rig makes me seriously consider orange and white. Do you know the paint codes? (said 11 months ago by Seth).
For the last 10 years I have been trying to find the perfect old school style bronco to buy until just days ago my friend told me about an International Scout. I had never heard of it but after a few days of resarch and many vehicles later I have found t (said 11 months ago by Janna Mann).
this website and your scout. I just wanted to say that you have done such an amazing job on the restoration and this is one of the most beautiful vehicles I have ever seen! (said 11 months ago by Janna Mann).
Seth, the paint is Nason 400-80 Orange and GM White but I'm not sure what the code number is on the white. (said 11 months ago by Lance Lopez).
Nice Scout Lance, i work on Industrial Way in Sparks and have seen your scout around the corner on Greg St. I have the Jolly Green Scout II in the "Fleet". Doing the Rubicon this summer if you are interested? (said 10 months ago by Dan Seiler).
Hi Lance - I was wondering how you liked your lockers - I am thinking of getting the same kind. (said 8 months ago by Eric Reid).
Also - who in town installed them for you? (said 8 months ago by Eric Reid).
Sic Scout!!!Guys what's up, this Scout is not a 2.4 what the hell. It's at the very least a 3.9... (said 8 months ago by Bobby Abbott).
