I am glad that you are OK, and like everyone else keeps saying, it doesnt look too bad considering. I am glad you are OK as well.




I would love to see what ideas you have for the tube fenders, I have been trowing this idea around for my 62 and wonder ho wI can work around the healights and front. I dont want to loose them. Tippy has those 52's and tube fenders that look sweet for a 60, but I dont want to loose my entire front end. Also the 4 headlights are an issue as well.

I am just waiting on my turn to use your old bender so any ideas would be great!

Sorry for the hi-jack...

are you the guy with the brown cruiser in "Lengendary Landcruisers?"
 
No Tippy is the name of the cruiser. The guy is in Canada, I cannot remember his name though.
 
Glad you're OK, Jim. Lemme know if you need any help replacing glass. Did the windshield frame get bent?

Was it Hidden Valley off Dakan Road?

I love that line.....the windshield frame got bent.....HE HE HE
 
It was a fun weekend... Until......

The trail was really light until we went down this lip. Sever, I got Jim's message, and I'll get the CB and stuff later.

I think you should tube it and make it a soft top! The wifie would LOVE that!!
 
Here's some more pics of this weekend's fun! This one is my fav.....Jim's saying " Hmm.....I think thats a steep drop....eh it'll do!" Very nicely done on that one there!!

How come there aren't any pics of my taco? ? ? :)
 
great pics jeff!

look what we did tonight :D:bounce::bounce2:
without a windshield it's hard to tell how close it is...but it looks pretty good.

used a car lift to push out the roof.
a hi-lift to pull the "b" pillar (no pic, trust me)
a hi-lift to push the "a" pillars top corner forward
and the hi-lift to pull out the bottom of the "a" pillar.
oh yeah, the air hammer really made a big difference along the windshield line :D
:D:D
no to pound out the doors and re-hang them :D

Nice story and I am glad no one was hurt.
Back up and running is the way to be after a roll like that.

How'd the front bumper fair?

I am so down for front protection on my wagon.
