Unreal build, and did you use an outboard for those water crossings?

That was a beautiful build up. That rig looks like it would be so much fun

Thanks Bruce.


Some guy is hanging over my shoulder commenting on your truck and claims he knows you (John Barron).

Anyways hes my new boss and what a slave driver..........

We are thinking about building some bumpers for a couple locals who have asked and I like your design and thinking about building one simular to yours or not? Still bouncing around ideas.

Rob

Well there's a name from the distant past. I remember him from the LCML, circa 96 or so. Does he still have a Cruiser?

Yeah, it's good to see that guy back in the cyberworld and into Cruisers again. Did he tell you that I was once his boss? Victoria is my favorite place to work but only in the winter.

I'll sit down and draw up the bumper one of these days so that fellow 70s guys can copy it if they like.

He still has his BJ42 rotting in the back, he is going to resorect it soon.

Driving a HJ61 factory cabled locked rig and owns a clean hj60 from Japan in the back which will be up for sale soon.

We are looking at getting a couple 74s or 73s and building a couple rigs like Bruces.

Thanks
Rob

Ya he mentioned that he had worked for you many moons ago.

He tried his hand at teaching a bunch of brats and came back to wrenching on cruisers again, not sure were he will hang the teaching degree in the shop?
