Description & Modifiations
This 1978 Scout Terra had been neglected and parked for a couple a years and was on its way to the junkyard when I found it and started the restoration 5 years ago. I was able to get it jump started and it ran on four cylinders for about 25 miles until I got it home. The V-8 304 needed a valve job, front & rear main seals, tune up, fuel pump, control module, coil, brakes, mufflers, and the starter and carburator rebuilt. I removed the rust and dents from all four 1/4 panels and welded in a new rear bed plate. A friend of mine sprayed the metallic blue paint and I added the new windshield & seal, and carpet. It sports a 4 inch Rough Country lift and Sean and the crew sent me out the nice Workman front bumper for my 8,000 lb Warn winch ('70's era). Nice welds Sean...exceptional work I would recommend to all.
Engine
International V-8 304
Future Modifications
This is my elk hunting rig and therefore ...that means snow and deep snow...so taller tires 35-12.5 are next, roll bar is in the plan, and a CD player.
