Thanks for all the kind words! But my wife is way more photogenic than I am... Porter Auto Body did the paint job and I think its the same color/product as those factory Neon Green Jeeps. Honestly don't remember the official name.

Gorgeous weekend up in Buena Vista. Took the green machine out on the back roads near St. Elmo and got to cut some fresh tracks. Then went down to "Buenie" to EddyLine for lunch and beers. Amazing day! Lots of kind comments from folks who like EBs.

Wouldn't suggest it. I heard you were kinda hairy, so a one-piece might be a better option.

Fun day with the Bronco today. Went to the Golden Super Cruise early -- around noon time -- grabbed some lunch in downtown Golden -- and then got rained on during the drive home. Then did date night in the Bronco and got rained on again around 9 PM! And the wife didn't complain once!!!

Wait a minute

You entered it in a car show instead of bringing it to the breakfast/swap meet so we could drool all over it???

What gives?

Oh well, nice job and cool trophy too

Took her out and got her dirty this weekend. Rough ride up to Pomeroy Lake but well worth it. Absolutely beautiful scenery and gorgeous day.
