This Scout has gone through Hundreds of hours of labor and Thousands of dollars in parts to become this Head turning ride. It is a frame off restored with many improvements over stock. Restoration completed in 2010. With a clean burning Buick 3.8 and a T-5 5-speed manual transmission, it has excellent performance plus good fuel mileage. The original 1961 fully boxed frame has been modified to include new Crossmembers for the Engine and Transmission, an IFS Suspension, it has been 'C' notched over the rear axle, then it was all repainted and a 1966 tub was mounted back on it using New Polyurethane Body Bushings. The windshield, door glass, regulators, wing window assemblies, latches. etc., were all removed prior to the body and paint work. The hood was chemically stripped, sanded, and painted with an Etching, Epoxy primer prior to the cowl installation. It was installed using Fusor SMC. It is vented under the hood. A set of Hydraulic Hood Struts were Custom Installed so no Prop Rod is needed to hold the Hood Open, plus opening and closing the hood is much nicer. I have never seen a Scout as originally rust free as this one. The floors are all Original with all of their Original X Bracing underneath. It runs and drives out great, and has no leaks of any kind. A lot has been done to it, so I will make a list: Professionally Built 3.8 Liter Buick V-6 with a Quadra Jet Four Barrel Carb and Mild Performance Cam Fully functional Chrome Header Style Side Pipes with Excellent Tone High Tech Heat Insulation Installed behind engine at firewall New Crossflow 1969 Camaro Radiator with Thermostatically Controlled Electric Fan Mounted in a Custom Frame Professionally rebuilt T-5 5-speed Transmission with New Clutch, Hydraulic Master Cylinder, lines, and slave Custom cut Driveshaft, Optima Red Top Battery Independent Front Suspension with Disk brakes All new Brake lines with Braided Flex lines New Master and Slave Cylinders; New Front Disc Pads and Rear Shoes Manual Rack and Pinion Steering Ford 8" Rear End with new, Wrapped, leaf Springs running Highway gears New Monroe Sensa-Trac Shocks all around Professionally Rewired with Heavy duty relays and Modern, Blade type Fuse panels New plastic Glove Box Insert with access thru two Port Holes in dash for Fuse Block and Storage All New Auto Meter Ultralight Carbon Fiber Gauges Mounted in Polished Aluminum with Countersunk Stainless Steel Hardware, including 2-5/8" Fuel level, Oil pressure, Water Temperature, Voltmeter, 5" Tachometer, and a 5" Electronic Speedometer that can be recalibrated quickly to accommodate a Tire size or Rear end Gear Change New LED turn signal and High Beam Indicator lights New 12 volt Power Plug with lighter All new I-Pod Stereo system including a Jensen 4 Channel Power Amp, a Pyle 10" Sub with a Sealed, 1.8 Cubic foot metal Enclosure under the bed, a pair of 6.5 inch Jensen Coaxial Speakers mounted with their own Sealed Metal Enclosures inside the front fenders, a Charging Plug for the I-pod with fixed level A/V outs for future use, and a mini to RCA plug with splitters to run the system all from your I-pod in the center console.
