That sign came from my grandfathers’s estate in Knoxville, Tennessee. In the 1950s, 60s, and 70s my grand parents were very active with a camping group and I believe that was the sign they used at campsites to identify their affiliation. I’m pretty sure he made it as it is hand-painted and he was quite the woodworker. Thanks for asking!
I was looking at the LaRue bumper sticker off to the left. I have the same one (and others).

Did you paint/restore it? Or did you get it like that for $600? If so, quite a deal.

It was a spur of the moment Craigslist deal. I didn’t really know what I was buying so I thought I was paying a fair price for a used winch. I believe it was bought new in 2010. I think I bought it in 2014 so yes, good deal at all around!

And I’ve got it plumbed into a dedicated AGM aux battery with in cab winch controls too. Just need to ditch that old ratty steel cable for synthetic line and I’ll be all set.
... gratuitous pics.

Very cool, thanks for sharing!
Got very lucky and after a long search, I got this off Facebook marketplace for $225. Needed a cable, I put a synthetic line on it, and a remote.
I opened it up and everything was in great shape so I sealed it back up and it works fine. Tight fit, but better than the old Mile Marker I had on there.

. Just need to wire it up with the Albright and it will go one the '77 FJ40.

Nice!
Also, the wheels are very cool! Are they widened late 40/60/mini wheels or something with similar shaped cut outs?

The HF badlands tree trunk protector straps are to small, I could barely get em around average size fir trunks...I do have two ARB’s trunk straps as well but don’t like dragging tree trunks with them.lol
