When viewed from below I did not find any rot through areas on the frame, although frame does have surface rust. Headlights, tail lights, and all side marker lights worked when tested. Again, the truck will need full restoration and replacement parts. This is not a driver nor is it roadworthy. It will for sure need a new windshield (cracked) and tie rod (bent)  Have title. VIN numbers on door plate, door decal, and title all match. These vintage scouts, when restored are reaching very high prices in excess of $100,000.00 This may be a golden opportunity for you.
