i have never been a "car" guy....could care less about what i drove...knew nothing about engines...didnt care really as long as i was able to drive....and drive i did...


drove a '66 international harvester SCOUT...3 speed....max 55 mph...4 cylinders of raw power...4 wd...firetruck red...white top..


.this baby was solid metal..the hood weighed a ton... friends called him "roger"...some called him "the old ladies shoe"...kind of looked like a boot an old crusty lady would wear....it looked like a military vehicle..according to me....thats where "roger" came from..."roger that!" it was boxy..


when the snow fell and i needed 4 wheel drive...i had to go outside and turn the hubs with a wrench....these hubs were old and rusty...and turning them was a chore....this thing was a pos....but it was a cool...


take the hard top off during the summer....doors came off too....it was tough work taking the top and doors off...all fuggen day.....old skewl cool...fuggen beeeeeeaaaaauuuuutiful....


i want one..id love to have a reconditioned scout...maybe one day..


these shows are awesome...these fellas are absolutely awesome at cars..building...finding...appraising...repairing...everything CARS! muscle cars seem to be the name of the game these days....SS's are the shit..every single show seems to feature the SS..chevelle..chevelle ..chevelle...


whatever....ill take me scout over an ss any day! fuggen a right!
