anyone in pheonix who could check out a scout for me?

[bushauler]

so i am in afghanistan with a friend of mine for work and she really wants to buy this scout online. it is about 5 hours from where we live and we wont be home for a couple months so we were hoping we could find someone kind enough to go check it out for her. it looks nice in the pics but we want to make sure its solid and doesnt need a ton of work. we dont expect perfection but hope its decent. please let me know if anyone is available. here is the link to the craigslist add. thank you so much.

If it helps I installed the axle and lift kit, It is professional the Scout was actually a v8 Scout originally but converted to a Scout II 196 so its running a v8 trans and all the other v8 equipment

It could use a little love, the floor boards is the only thing I remember being rusty, the rest is solid but has some dings and dents, there is also I big hole under the dash where it used to have an a/c setup

thanks for the info, bumping this back up. anyone available this weekend to check this thing out?

I live on the West side but will be working on the East side this Saturday.
I'll try to check it out then.
I think I have a pretty easy day so it should work out.
Damn, I just jinxed myself, didn't I.

how was the frame and wiring? i just want to make sure that its not like some vehcicles of this age where the wiring , frame, and a million little things are a mess and have been butchered together. we dont expect perfection and know a vehicle of this age will need some work. do you think its worth the price or a little under the price? any info you can give me about your the rig would be much apreciated. i know you said the floor boards were a little rusty and it had some dents and dings which doesnt worry us. its going to get wheeled.

well i just got to see a ton of pictures of the scout and were pretty happy with the pics. like azscout said the floorboards are pretty bad but thats the only thing really concerning me. if anyone looks at it this weekend please dirve it and just check out the wiring for me. thats about all im really concerned with barring any big surprises. thanks for your help on here everyone.
