Yup... that's the one. I think Holeshot is still around.


I recently sold my buggy to guy in Farmington, NM. :( It was sad to see her go. I replaced her with a little single seater that used to be BZ's/Tracy's but I still owe some $ on her so it's sitting in AZ. :shaking: I'm jonesin' for somthing to drive.

Do you still have your '60 that rescued me on Upper Helldo long ago? That was a fun trip. :D

When is the inaugural outing to Moab in the new '40?

THe 60 is gone:(
but the 40 is a lot more of a rig and I am excited to break it in. Not sure on a Moab date right now. Was Easter but that may not happen, we will have to see.
Good luck in the new Buggy!:smokin: :D

Thank you Justin for doing this rig up the way I wanted to. It is sad for me to see it but I am glad it went to someone who did it right.
I am trying to plan a Memorial day Moab trip, if your still in GJ I would love to wheel with you and the 40'. The taco is in a million piece right now and WILL be done for MOAB.
Let me know if you can make it.
Rig looks awesome!!!!

What are you doing to the Tacoma?
I am back to work up here in Oregon, but am planing a couple spring trips. Memorial day is way to far into fire season for me :( unless I get a new job I just put in for in Colorado!:D We will see what happens. If I get it I will be very,very sad to leave here and my current job and the great people I work with, they are truley my brothers. But the one in CO is a major step up and plus I will be back in CO full time.

I figured it would be in the firee season for you but had to offer.
The taco went under the knife, 14" out of the bed:D And now am putting in a full PSC steering kit, an inchworm crawler and building sliders and a rear bumper/tire thingy.

Be sure and post up some pics when you get it done.

We will get to wheel together some day:) I pretty much took a year off of having a rig in between my 60 and my new 40 so as you can imagin I am chomping to go wheeling. In the winter I usually go dam near once a week. GOt to go a few times this winter but never in my rig just in James buggy. Luckly he lets me drive a lot to get it out of my system:D
