Great read, and brought back memories.  My last visit to the Black Canyon of the Gunnison and up to Grand Mesa, I had 3 kids in the back of my VW camper.  We camped on Grand Mesa and went on west from there to Utah…

Received mine today, and it looks great!  Thanks, Ed!

Kent I’m going to screw them in as the assembly manual says. Ed I like the trim welting along the top and bottom but not sure how white will look against the red door edge.

Hey Allen, that’s why “home” was in quotes.

He doesn’ need to know I’m staying down here.Overnight low is going to be 69 tonight. Brrr!

I will sell it piece meal

3-4 TDrs, a cone course laid out in a big lot or field. Snow snowing. Video from several angles.It would go viral.

Slalom in a large, open, snow-covered parking lot?

This gives me an idea for a rally . . .
