This Scout has been a blast to own but it is now time for my wife and I to travel. I have taken this car a long way and now it is your turn to take it the rest of the way, but it is drivable now. I drove it 30 miles to work to take the pictures.
This is a 46 year old truck with some bumps and bruises yet it still has game left (as many of us older guys do)
Will sell to “in states” buyer only
Buyer to pay for pick up or transportation.
