I've owned this scout for 8 years and while it's a fun little ride, with two kids it's time for it to find another home.

The motor is a straight 6 232 that is pretty stock.  I had to have the carb rebuilt a few months ago, but aside from that the only thing I've done to it is basic maintenance.  It leaks a LITTLE bit of oil, but its so little that I've never bothered to even mess with it.

The paint is in good shape and has a cool looking patina in a couple areas (and by patina I do NOT mean rotten metal cancer with flaking paint).  The body is very solid.  There is a couple minor surface rust spots on the Scout but no areas that are anything substantial.  The bed has a spray on liner that was done by a previous owner.  It has some paint pinstriping on the tailgate and some plastic pinstriping on the body (the kind they use on modern vehicles) that is a really cool design.

The interior is in really good shape with black carpet.  The heater works very well.  The bench seat is not IH but I have no idea what it was taken out of.  

Here's the issues:
-no wipers.  I live in Idaho... it's a desert so it's not been an issue for me.
-the turn signal was broken off at one point and an aftermarket signal was installed (pretty common on the 800s).  I do have a steering column with a turn signal in tact I'll include.
-some of the badging was put on by someone who thought screws would be a great idea (this wasn't me).
-The tires don't match.
-most of the gauges don't.  I was told by a scout guy that the speedo would work correctly (it works, it's just not accurate) if I got the right cable.
-the top of the windshield frame has two holes that a previous owner drilled for windshield wipers - I'll include that setup but it won't fit if you have the top on.

I have a bunch of parts and trim I pulled from a parts car.  Everything from tail light lenses to interior trim (and the extra steering column with turn signal in tact mentioned above).

Other than that, it's pretty clean and runs well.  Let me know if you have any questions.
