Just watched the 24 hour swap video earlier today. Wanted to see it with the final tweaks. Looks great. Your videos are selling me on your work when the time comes for my Scout purchase down the road. I'm not a 'wrench on the engine' kind of guy, and have always loved the Scout in my teens back in the late 70's.
The IH engine should make a coffee good table. Modern fuel injection and a suspension just MAKES GOOD SENSE in the modernization of the platform. Beating the hell out of my spine just to be a "purist" in an old truck makes no sense when, we have the technology available. Those two sisters "Pat and Tina " are a choice some like and some don't ... Personally I like what the owner did with his truck. I am from and live in TEXAS, A/C is a must here because those two sisters "heat and humidity" are with YOU EVERYWHERE, EVERYDAY ... We "breathe water " in the southeastern part of the state ... I will be contacting you guys for a "Cummins R2.8 build " I can drive that daily with the right setup ... I like what you do with these trucks !!!
Love the 24HR LS swapped Scout. I've been looking for a cheaper/builder Scout with a SBC in it. I've got a Barra almost done being built on the stand and cant decide if its going in my Thunderbird or buy a Scout to swap.
Very nice guys!... I get the thing about the engines! My scout has the 345 and she runs sweet as and I love it My ither car is a 2915 caprice LS and I alsi live that Engine!... Its very tempting but Lemon Baby is all original matching numbers All IH top to bottom and Just gives me butterflies every time I drive it And that is alot!

So happy to hear this Jerry! Thanks for following along!
Glad to finally see the vid on this one! The black paint is amazing, and not something you see on Scouts often, if at all.
Glad you liked it! We like the black paint too!

Perfect! Keep it that way and drive it until the wheels fall off!
What's a good engine swap for a diesel. I have a 80 with the sd33t
Do you sell the rear bumper with the swingarm?
