Impressive work Jeff!
You are one quick builder my friend! Let us all know what you find with the
engine.
Fall flying is the best.

Hey Oscar, you are dragging your tail. Get moving and get to work. It will fly
again. Gardiner. By the way. What happened to your scout? Was it an accident
or just an annual.

The wings are still off the airplane and all the inspection covers are off.
I still need to make glue repairs to a rib glue joint and a splintered spot
on the plywood leading edge of one of the wings before they will be done. The
tailwheel is coming off so I can take a slight twist out of the leaf springs
that has the tailwheel wearing unevenly. I need to patch a hole that I cut
in one of the ailerons to remove a loose piece of hardware that was rattling around
in there (a random nutplate). The engine cowlings are off and the plug
wires are dangling willy-nilly, since I'm replacing the cooling eyebrows with
the new set that I have. The front seat bulkhead is torn out; I'm rebuilding
it with a new one, along with Mike Cuy-style rudder stops and an extra brace across
the front of it to keep it from ever ungluing again when I "exercise" the
rudder bar to its full extents in a crazy crosswind.!
> The turn and bank is out of the panel for overhaul. The braided flex fuel
line from the shutoff valve to the gascolator is out of the airplane, to be replaced
with aluminum tubing. The aileron control cables are dangling in the cockpit.
The ELT battery is out of date and needs to be replaced. The gear legs
need touch-up paint, as do two fabric repair patches at the lift strut attach
points (still in pink). Gaaa-!!! Will this thing ever fly again? Will the
engine even start? Poor Scout!!!

Sounds like the move and winter were a little hard on Scout.
Cheers,
