new to front range 4X4

[66sporttop]

Hey just looking for a fun group to wheel with. So here is the short version I bought my 66 scout 800 sportop back in 1994 and wheeled it all over Kansas and Oklahoma. My wife and I moved to Parker Colorado back 2005 and quickly started a family(we have three little ones two older boys and there little sister) needless to say the scout sat for a number of years, but the kiddos have gotten old enough for me to start back at my second favorite activity(the first is flying but thats what I do for a living now). I started driving the scout last year but the engine spun a bearing sooooo Im about done installing the new 345 V8 and I cannot wait to get into the mountains.

Stats
1966 scout 800 sportop
345 V8
T18
D20
D30 front D44 30 spline with a lock right rear 3.73 gears
lifted enough fro 33's but currently sitting on 31's

To Do items:
weld in the full roll cage and finish the engine swap

Can't wait to get out there

Welcome! I just joined earlier this week and must say that I've been overwhelmed by the welcoming response. I've always been a Scout fan; looking forward to seeing yours.
