I'm a Denver native and started 4 wheeling with my dad about 1969 when he bought a an old Willys wagon. I was about 6 years old at the time. My first 4x4 was an `83 Toyota SR5 short bed. I bought this while in the NAVY. I took it from Denver to Connecticut where I found the sand dune at exit 6a in Rhode Island. From there, I, was stationed in Sunny San Diego, where beach running and the Salton Sea was my weekends. I then took the Toyota to Western Washington. There I got high in the Olypmic Peninsula. Lake Tayoha ORV Park in the mid `80's. After the Navy I moved back to Denver. After having the Toy stolen I picked up a `73 Blazer, which my mom rightly named, "Big Ugly." With "The Big" I ventured a little but, it was never the same. After a few years of withdrawl symptoms, I got the, "Little Ug." A 1962 Willys CJ5 with a blown Chevy 305 between the frame rails. I Rebuilt a 350 into a 383cu in. This only made the the little T90 go out. I Had Mile High Jeep Rebuilders rebuild a T18 for me and lotsa of help trying to get it back together again. This is my winter project This year. |
