Real nice, and his in the next photo too...


Pic of Test hill from the bottom, with High Altitude lifted.


Look what came flying by once I reached the top.



Day two playing in the sand




Thought these were cool...


All in all a good trip... Would have been better if Drews CJ would have gotten on the dunes...

As best as we could tell its a Fierro body on a CJ7 frame. Its didn't sit still all day so we couldn't really tell but we tailed it for about an hour trying to see.

I didn't like the color when i got it but it has grown on me. For paint we plan on painting all the chrome the same red as the pin strip and diff covers and the gray bumper, flairs, and trim black to tie into the sliders and rear bumper. Pics to come when we get it done.

Edit: You had a link to the forums, question deleted. Was going to ask how the boundries worked and if you were allowed on the beach with your jeeps/trucks. It must be a seperate part of the beach meant for wheeling?

Everything is designated out. You can drive down to about 25 feet from the water edge. The whole thing is very well marked where you can go and in some parts what direction you can go.

Looks like a Subaru XT from the 80s.

Edit: not an XT, maybe a mid 80s Corolla coupe...
