    Love that thing. I don't know what your plans could possibly be, I think it's perfect just as it is.

      I love it when vehicles like this get passed down through the generations. I have similar vehicle in the family, an FJ40. Since my dad and I are the only ones in the family with a mechanical know how, I think it might be heading our way here pretty soon.

                  My friend Totem caught me riding up 85 out of ATL.



                  Another friend just scored new shop space and we were checking it out after eating a fine breakfast at Homegrown.

                        There is a strong possibility i will be there.




                        Put the scout to work today hauling wheels and tires down to Gran Turismo East (my favorite tire shop in Atlanta) .

                            This is my buddy Helmut. Going to get a coffee on a chilly morning, he loves riding in the Scout.

                              Heater fan switch failed. Made a temporary one til i can get a real one. This one has two speeds like the original.





                              Also, the emergency brake cables had been seized and i got them all working smooth again, it's nice to have a parking brake.

                              Seriously love this truck.

                                My Uncle had a 41k mint TravelAll sitting in a barn. No shit. Along with a 641/2 Mustang with 20k miles.

                                Barn burned, trashed them both.
