Thanks to eWillys, Bob just picked up this 1964 CJ-3B. He bought it out of Arizona and had Drew from the Jeep Farm replace the bumper. Because he found it on eWillys, Bob is sending Ann and I out to dinner on him. His support has been great over the years, so a big thanks to him and his wife (pictured in the passenger seat below)!
