The Tear down

Today after 3 months, we finally went to it. My boys, Tyler and Justin were a big help. It took 3 people to pull the doors off. Man are those things heavy.

Justin is thinking he can do this himself. Well.... not really

Here's Tyler and Justin hard at it again.









Front end all taken apart and ready for prep. 

Time for tear down of "ShagNasty"

Well it's been awhile since my last post. I wasn't sure if I was going to be keeping this Scout or not. Had if for sale for awhile but my Scout buddies told me "Dude, it's a Midas, Keep it" So.... I decided to keep her.

This week I got my pricing on the metal I'll be needing to replace my Inner Rockers, Outer Rockers and Floor. Not as bad as I thought. 

This weekend (Easter) Tyler, Justin and I will be starting. We will first take the doors off. from there we'll disassemble the headlights, turn signals and take the front grill off in order to remove both front fenders.

Once we have the front end torn off, it will give us room to fabricate new inner rocker panels.

We really haven't done much to her since December. A few weeks ago I did take off one tire and wheel (Passenger side, the worst one). Had the tire taken off wheel and let my local shop blast it. Here's how the one wheel looks now.
