i saw this thing up close and in person over at lightline in Baton Rouge. MAN!!! that is baaaaad scout. how did you do the lug conversion? is it a different rear end or just adapters? (said over 4 years ago by Greg Haines).
I'm currently a Lambda Chi at the University of Arkansas and I'm about to won my first Scout. It's a 1979 Scout II. Pretty rough now, but i've been waiting for a project like this. Your build up looks good. That's one mean looking Scout. -ZAX (said over 4 years ago by Alex).
