Raffle would be sweet, but impossible to do legally in Colorado unless through an established charity or licensed gaming organization.

don't know if it would apply to colorado (or anymore), but years ago, rainey kirk raffled off zebronator. to get out of the raffle issue, he sold keychains (with numbers on them) and a lucky keychain was given a cruiser ;)

raffle licenses suck. dealt with that too much with the colorado assoc of 4wd clubs

  • Bold move rhino lining the snorkel...
  • Can't get in/out of the passenger door without rubbing up against that hi-lift. Great thinking.
  • Exposed wiring and electrical tape on the dome light is a nice touch..
  • Electric windows don't feel right, especially with a canvas top.
  • POR-15 everything. Hope the conversion coating isn't rust.
  • Uhhh... The snorkel doesn't connect with the intake. It's just covering the vent..
Good Lawd.

BUT IT’S GOT A LIGHT BAR!!

Check the steering column. Kind of a tight squeeze with the gauge cluster … forced it in, scratched the paint, said “f%#k it.” Nice.

I asked Gonzalo this morning if he would take on any more work and his answer is no. He is retiring at the end of May and has enough projects to keep him busy until then. He worked on at least nine Rising Sun vehicles, including three of mine, and each one made the owners quite happy. Both with the quality of work and for his very fair prices. All that and he has become a personal friend of several of us and having a couple of beers at his shop after hours is always filled with good humor and it’s a great place to brush up on your Spanish. 😁🍺

The color is terra cotta and a factory option in 1980. Dean wanted to spice things up and Gonzalo obliged.

Thanks for using him up I knew I should’ve never let the cat out of the bag 😉

Gonzalo was and is a good man

He did our “hot mess to minty fresh” paint for me

1969 FJ40 hot mess to minty fresh or..spring green fresh?

so..the rear jump seats mentioned earlier with the rotted out feet/leg... that same area on the tub was affected. Basically there are scab plates under the wheel wells that are spot welded into place underneath to reinforce for the jump seats. the metal between those plates and hte wheel...
risingsun4x4club.org risingsun4x4club.org

I only have 3 trucks that I have for ma man to do…but he won’t even text me back now…
I know why 9 nine!!! Rising Sun trucks hot damn

Good to see he recovered from the broken leg and he’s still rockin his OG globeville haunts

In all seriousness Good on him and you for getting Dean’s mini taken care of.

First in line for Bart 😀

Thing is, Gonzalo really enjoys us GFSSTGs. I think it is because we bring beer every time we come over at the end of the work day. I'm going to miss hanging at the yard and all the laughter that ensued there. So glad you did let the cat out of the bag, simps, for his sake and for ours too. Truly a great guy that knows how to take care of business and customers.
Can't believe I'm actually contemplating it Mike, but you called first dibs so you are at the top of the list. Don't get too excited about it though. ;)

I got a really good rust free mini with records back to 83 or an 2 owner one of 873 collectors edition triple locked 80 or a 1970 fj40 or “and” if the other options fall through in your never ending insatiable desperate quest to dump Bart 😉
