After our paddle we took a ride into town in Andy’s completely restored ’65 FJ45 long bed to pick up a few things I needed. Andy did a frame-off resto on this thing a couple of years ago and it is absolutely amazing. He did virtually everything himself including the paint which looks awesome...
Starting COBDR tomorrow
Thanks for the comments Curtis and SD Diver...it's really cool to have a community like this to share stories w/ like minded people. Curtis, your trip across the US sounds epic...that has been a bucket list thing for me for years, but I'm a wimp and would want the...
Random shots from the first few days
I arrived at my buddy's place outside Durango late Friday afternoon. The drive from Great Basin was easy and very scenic once you get into UT. You can maintain about 85-90mph much of the way, so it goes fast. But it's still a lot of ground to cover :)...
Hey man...good for you! I agree...life is too short to do something you don't like to do...so the trick is to find what you do like and make that your living...thats what I'm trying to figure out over the next few months. There are lots of options, but mastering the work / life balance is tough...
Day 1
Quick update while I eat lunch in Moab on the way to Durango. Got a bit of a late start yesterday and ended up pulling into camp at Great Basin right around dark. First part of the drive through Reno and western NV was predictably boring and ugly, but it starts to get cool after Austin...
This sort of trip has been a fantasy of mine for a long time. The allure of trading in corporate life, powerpoint presentations and board room meetings for board shorts, no entries in my calendar and wide open road full or dirt has been a gravitational pull for years. I’ve been dreaming of this...
Can't believe nobody jumped on this before me. I flew into Missoula this morning and picked her up...drove through a nasty snow storm and made it to Idaho Falls on my way back to Cali...she drove like a champ...super nice well built truck.
I'm on my 2nd built hundy, and you simply can't beat these rigs...GREAT value for $12k...someone is going to get a hell of a rig for not a lot of money. I'd buy it if I didn't have a newer twin version!

Posting for a friend of mine who isnt very internet savvy. He has a 99 7.3L SMB penthouse with the Quigley 4x4 conversion. He loves the van but the suspension sucks ***. He's not overly mechanical either, so ideally hes looking for an independant speciality shop in NorCal that can deliver a...
Damnit!
I knew I should have had Mike leave those bars on the front bumper!
Bump for my twin rig that's priced WAY lower than what it cost me to build this one just a few months ago. Someone needs to buy this so it stops letting me know I stupid I was to build another hundy instead of just...
THIS IS A KILLER DEAL ON A GREAT FULLY BUILT HUNDY!
I've wheeled with Andy and driven this truck a number of times. I just gave him crap for pricing this so cheap. I sold my blue 99 which was built identical to this 2 years ago and got $19k. If you can find an upholstery shop who can redo the...
