I noticed the scout too, another piece of history gone. At least we know of one being saved. I had a 75 , Should have been punished for selling it.

The IH Scout is another long, project of mine.

The tranny, diff, and running gear has all been gone through. Next on the, to do list is, the engine. It runs, but needs an overhaul..... rings and valves, plus general clean-up.
The body panels need a lot of work, but that is where I am at now!!!!

I bought my 44 2N, and run out of $$$$$$'s.....LOL.. so, it is on hold for awhile.

This scout is the second one I have worked on and got running. The first one was a 1966, four banger, early mod. The one you see here:

This one that I am working on now is, I believe, a 1968 mod, II, 800, with an 8 banger, in it.
POJECTS are fun, but take time and lots of $$$$$$'s..... :shock:
Have an "N" day!!!!

Nah, you didn"t p--- off anyone, Gary. You live in Montana, remember? If you don"t like the weather here, wait a minute. We have a foot of snow and it"s just getting above freezing now at 1:30 pm. It was in the 20"s this morning. looks like it still maybe snowing in the Missions.
Ya" gotta" roll with the punches, buddy.Especially when they"re weather related. Darn little we can do about them. Where"s "global warming" when you need it??!!

Bless your heart, Gary!!

I sure hope the wife's trip goes well.

We had 3 mornings last week with a minor frost, we had to cover the tomato, and pepper plants with plastic buckets, and empty beer boxes at night, it looked like we had a good crop of buckets, and boxes growing in the garden, I should have got some pics of that.

The corn, and beans seemed to stand it, and we have small turnip greens, mustard greens, and collards looking pretty good.
Now they are saying 80*s by mid week.
Still waiting to see if the okra, zucchini, crook neck, cucumbers, and water melons, we put in the ground a couple of weeks back will bust up as the ground warms, if not, we will just replant them.

We bearly did get a jump on the rain, and only got part of what we intended in the ground, so maybe we will get around to some more stuff yet, if the ground will get dry enough to plow again.

Not much I can do about it now!!! And my wife knows how to drive in this crap. If she sees the girlfriend is having trouble, she will take over the wheel, sooner or later. Just hope she does, before they get into trouble.

I'm not liken' this much. About a 6 hr. drive from Spokane.!!!! Their weather is not looking any better over there.
