Greetings,
I unpacked Raul's beautifully crafted frame today. It was primed in a manly color of green that I almost kept. Unfortunately the customs agents stabbed one of the curved pieces above the door with a big steely knife. After hammering on it for a bit it came back to an acceptable shape.
I presume everyone knows the beautiful mountain town of Medellin has a daily temperature of 72 degrees every day....as does Santa Barbara for that matter. I can't wait to get back there.
The Colombian people are wonderful in every way. The Colombian coffee trail is worth the effort and I will do it once again. However this time will not have the need for an armed convoy.....which if nothing else makes for a good story I'll tell around the fire pit someday. It didn't work out so good for everyone but that was a long time ago when the US didn't even have diplomatic relations with Colombia. Some say those were the bad ole days...
If you need a soft top in frame please contact Raul he is a tremendous part of our efforts to restore these old war horses.
Patrolling towards a new soft top installation next week,
