    My Grandfather's Scout

    I got this from my Finnish grandfather, it has been in the family since new in 1962. It has served various roles from sitting broken to daily driver over the last 13 years i have owned it. Since i live in the southeast and am a retard, the roof is off and the windshield down pretty much year round. To say i am sentimentally attached would be an understatement but it does offer a driving experience like no other.

    It has been off the road for the last few years and i am so stoked to be driving it again, i have never driven a vehicle that makes more people happy than this one does.

            you are a lucky man. my Father had one when i was young and i loved it. cant find them jp here anymore they all rusted to nothing. the ones that have not are worth more than if they were made out of forged unicorn shit.

                            Great old truck! I have a really nice 1970 Jeepster Commando sitting in my garage right now that I need to get back on the road so badly. This motivates me! I love the patina that thing has on it. Sweet truck!!
