• Pardon the dust while the boys rebuild the site.

    The board will be in a state of disarray as I get things sorted out, for a little while at least.

    The new incarnation is using Xenforo as the system software. It is much like what we are used to, with a few differences. I will see about making a FAQ to help point out the differences for the members.

     

    One IMPORTANT difference for all of us old timers is that the 'mail' system is replaced with what are called 'conversations'/

    There is no 'Inbox' or 'Out box' or 'Sent' folders anymore.

    Think of Conversations as private 'threads' or topics that don't exist in a forum, that you start with another member. NOTE: Conversations can include more than one member if you or someone else in the conversaion, likes.
    Takes a little getting used to but I am sure you all can get a hang of it.

     

    Only a slightly modified default default Xenforo style is available for now. Once the new SAG style is ready it will be available.

    All existing users should be able to login with their usernames and passwords once the site goes up.

    Thank you for your support and patience. I know it has been a loooong road.

Thanks! The camo net is some netting from the fabric store with brown and OD canvas strips woven in it.

Oh, I forgot to mention that the seats a customized as well, with real cloth covered cushions instead of the stock plastic ones.
 
I think that's the best detailed Scout car I've seen.Makes me want to take mine out of it's box and actually do something with it.Good luck.
 
Amazing piece of work, right up there with Sgt Schultz WSC and Armorpax's WSC. After seeing yours I want to rip mine apart and redo it LOL :!: :!: :!:
