Actually it's my roomates. He picked it up yesterday for $200. I was going to buy it but when he saw it was a SSII he had to have it. It might not look like much but i guess it's one of the rarest options for a scout you can get. He kept saying that it was a 'gold mine.' The soft tops are really hard to come buy, plus it has a 4 speed wide ratio tranny which is also very very rare.



He wants me to detail it for him but i'm not sure there is much i could do for it... he's trying to decide if he should part it out and sell it, or if he should save those parts that make it an SSII and put it on his main scout, then make a sand buggy or crawler out of whats left.



It was kind of interesting driving it back. It had no doors on at the time so i got a great view... it also had a little hole on the passenger's side

Kind of interesting watching the highway underneeth you....



I was going to buy it and use it as my mobile detailing truck (after i fixed it up a bit of course). We found another for $200 though so i might use that one. It has plenty of room in the back for all my suplies, plus there's all sorts of cool stuff you can do, like putting onboard air to dry the vehicles. It has all kinds of room for a generator, or water tank or whatever else is needed.
 
You know, some ScratchX/GS27 would do wonders for that rust that is all over the paint. It won't do anything for the huge patches of cancer but it will clean up the drips nicely. It would make a huge difference.
 
LOL, you're crazy! Nothing a couple minutes with a PC and #7 couldn't fix though. :D



Let us know how it goes. :)
 
do you think 80 coats of klasse and 40 coats of z-2 will be enough to fill the holes? They give such a good shine on the paint, i wonder what they would look like as the paint...
 
run it until it dies and leave it there, no need to waste oney on detail supplies, cars like that werent meant to be pretty in the first place.
 
Lift it, and locking diffs. Maybe slap some fiberglass fenders on where the cancer's getting too nasty. Then go to Moab! I wouldn't bother making it pretty, maybe a spray can paint job, but rock crawlers aren't generally attractive vehicles. You got a good deal, a friend of mine has a Scout she's trying to sell and she wants a $1000 for it even though it has a bad T-case.
