I've been lucky enough to to spend about 2 1/2 weeks with my daughter on a northwest road trip (4300 miles) seeing parts of the country that we have not been through before. She graduated in May with a BS in nutrition and before getting a job decided to go on this trip with me. Along the way I went through Red Lodge Montana and met up with Cinnabear. Had a enjoyable conversation with him and wanted to check out his 2a, but the Willys was locked down in the repair shop. Sounds like Cinnabear and the Willys are on the mend, so hopefully we will see pics of his Willys in action on the Cj2a page, Sharing a photo of us before I hit the road. By the way Cinnabear is the rt wearing the dark shorts. Tried to rotate pic once downloaded, but could not(some one want to clue me in on how)

Hey I know that guy!!! It was great getting to meet you and your daughter Phil! I'm glad you had a fun, and safe trip. As a side note we had a grizzly bear attack just up the road last night. Still havent gotten my Willys back yet, its been a month now waiting for the guy to install the transmission and transfer case....the drawbacks of living on the edge of civilization....hopefully this week I'll get it back and get to drive it before snow.

Sorry that I missed you Phil, I live about 15 miles east of Eugene. We could have got together and talked Jeep and even gone for a ride. Glad you had a great trip and I love Oregon too, that's why I moved here from Calif. in 1988.

Sorry as well Mike, it would have been nice to put faces with names and see more Willys out there.
