Time to fire that baby up!
Thanks for the info! That actually helps a lot. Yeah, it needs a LOT of love. The spacers are indeed scary and shocks definitely would be nice. I'm not really into 4x4ing so this project has been sitting for years. I have a Jeep with at least $5k in mods thanks to the previous owner if I need to go anywhere questionable, but I still don't go to enough questionable places to justify spending any time/money on this Scout. At least cars don't really rust out here which is nice. Somebody right down the road had a 59 El Camino sitting in their yard (in original but unkept for shape) for years and years and it just sold recently. There was no way that thing been painted or washed since 1985 and it was still in fair shape.
