Got your forum info from a bumper builder "Keystone Fab." as I was checking out his products. I am from Boise, Idaho. Been wheeling over 39 years now and yes, I am old.
Had 17 different Jeeps and quite a few trucks over the years. This is my first XJ. Also have a 1959 Willys pickup bed trailer set up for off roading use. No pictures at the moment of either. Feel free to browse any pics here though-

Only 39 years, that probably makes you a little younger than me. Welcome to the forum.

I am just a few hours NorthWest of you in the middle of Washington. My wife and I love to visit Baker City, Oregon... I would love to stop by and see your Yellow Willy's in person. :D

Ron, I don't get over to Baker City much anymore. Was with the group that started Virtue FLats OHV area, helped lay out some of the trails and rock course there. Love the Oregon Trail Interpetive Center there. There is a little shop in downtown Baker City that sells ice cream-there homemade Huckleberry is worth a 2.5 hour drive.
Come on over Nov 19-21 to Boise for a fun filled off road event suitable for stock rigs. Here is more info.

The only rigs I have left now are the XJ and the Willys trailer. My wife and I health issues have crimped our style the last few years.
If you get over to Baker or this way, give a call. 208-861-6514 Don
