Alan Quackenbush is doing the install for me. He is the son of one of the original developers and has done many installations of the kit.

Sweet! Love the Broussard! Saw a nice one last summer at Smiley Creek that had a smoke system. Pretty bad-ass.

Hey M6RV6,

Your shaded parking inspired me to post my two bush rigs. Both aluminum! 8)

Shot of 77D with a visiting friend. New 8's on the mains, and a 6 on the nose with a Cessna 310 fork. Makes a big difference with big boy shoes . . .

Can't see the backcountry tee shirt logo due to the stylish survival vest - but it's there :lol:
