Hey guys - I've been out all week since the M&G...thought I'd drop a line with a couple pics. Looks like things are coming together well. I'll be sending an email to all who signed the sheet at the M&G Sunday. If anyone else wants to share their contact info with other members in this kick-off effort drop me a message with your email, name, screen name, city and rig description. Cortez (Dave) |

Is the trail in CO? Hook me up with the name. Funny to me that Bronco's exist in suburbia - I wonder if HOA's want to ban them. |

My HOA probably wants to ban my old girl...she marks her territory in front of my house like a rogue coyote. I don't even know if the trail has a name - it's out of CSprings past Woodland Park - you can cross over and down to the Platte River there. Fun place - I'll have to bring a gazetteer to the next meeting and show you the area. |

I'm decent at landnav, w/geos I could find my way, and it would be great to bring maps to meetings so we could talk trails. |

That last picture looks really steep - can read your lips saying WHEW! I MADE IT! That trail looks fun, but looks cold - good thing you had the hard top on. Looks like you had some company - a Jeep and what looks like a Scout - is that your Brother-In-Laws? I am excited to see his Scout - from what you have said it is sweet. HOA's are usually notified by your neighbors - I take mine fresh baked cookies often |

That trail looks like Hackett, Longwater or Metberry. Is it out of Divide? Take Cedar Mtn. Road? |

Trail looks like Metberry. Just did it on 10/31/10. Did you drop down a big rock slab before you reached the Platte? J.D. |

Is that Arcadian Blue under that red/patina? Looks just like the paint I found under the red on my '66. Nice family cage. Whodunit? |

That is BEAUtiful! Who made the cage? I'm still anxiously awaiting mine. Bronco Hut picked it up from ProtoFab last week but they didn't install the overhead bars I asked for. So ProtoFab is shipping the bars to the Bronco Hut and Dana is going to install them this or next week sometime. PITA! |

Your cage turned out awesome but the pics do not do the Metallic paint justice - it is even nicer in person. Nice job on the welding and the paint! |

Post subject: | Re: '67 Sun Fade Patina |
That is the original Arcadian blue. I'm planning to go with a metallic rust type color when she gets painted. The cage is a kit offered by All Four Fun...I think they are out of Washington. It was a Craigslist steal for $250 and my brother in-law helped weld it up. I sold my old roll bar for $100, so my net cost was $150 and a bunch of work. Don't underestimate the time for that project...I think we took a day and a half, going slow to make sure it was straight. That's not including the sanding, priming and painting. |
