* God I love the simple engineering of old American Iron. Like someone said "Oh Shit We Need Windshield Defrosters!" So they stamped out some thin steel plates to screw to the sheet metal dash that direct warm air up to the windshield. Problem Solved ! 👊😎👍

Nice job, I've always liked the scout 80's

To "OLD IRON LOVERS" like this guy, me, and many others, We know how easy it was to fix these "4X4' OF YESTERYEAR" (With the exception of finding parts that aren't so easy). Plus, I was wondering about the other "SCOUT" at "9:27": If he has a clear title on that one as well I WOULD LOVE A RESTORATION VIDEO ON THAT ONE AS WELL! After all: "AREN'T 2 SCOUTS BETTER THAN ONE?"

The 152 runs good! Transmission seems to be in decent shape! Great little run about! Good idea on pulling the box. You can get another for cheap. I have one in Missouri I could give you if you need it.

Thanks! I've got the one in my parts scout I'll use if I end up needing it, appreciate the offer though!
