I'd be happy to answer any questions I can about my Scout or offer advice. Keep up the good work, and I hope to see it at an event someday.
If you're interested, here is the build thread for my original '47 Chevy truck based on a modified S-10 chassis:

My thread on Pro-Touring for the Scout is less of a build thread, and more of an attempt to improve the front suspension. Lately I just haven't had the time or money to get that aspect of the project going again, but I hope that will change soon:

Thanks for the links! I've spent quite a bit of time sifting through some of it, lots of great info there.
It's funny too because I had been considering a Commando very seriously as well. But I ended up with the Cherokee because of how many parts I already had for that body style. In retrospect, the Commando would probably be a better platform from a performance standpoint but I have no regrets going with the Cherokee.
Hope you're able to get back on your project soon, cant' wait to see updates.
