Story: Hello, The first IH I ever owned was a 68' scout 800 4x4 304.I'm 13 years old and this my project car. I found in the auto Trader, I bought for 470$, It was sitting in a field for over a decade.When I went to buy it we had to winch it on because someone had tried to tow it from the drag link, it bent the drag link and the wheels are toed in.It runs, it has a rusted out gas tank, the steering has to be replaced, the suspension has to be replaced, the body has a couple of golf ball size dings in it, the front left fender has to be replaced, the top is in good condition. I'm going to restore the interior, have it turbo lined, replace the seats, etc. On the exterior i'm going to put a 6"lift on it with 35"BFGoodrich Mud Terrains and Eagle Alloy Wheels,series 589. I'm going to replace the shocks with Bilstein shocks.I'm going to paint it royal blue when it is all finished. Right now I have had it for about a month, what i'm doing right now is changing all the fluids, and trying
