Need a Spot

I've come across some old posts mentioning bumpers made for Gen1 Montero's made by a user here by the name of Don. I've sent Don a PM asking about these, but I see he hasn't posted in almost a year.

Anybody know if he still makes/sells these bumpers, or have any contact info for him? I have this 87 Raider that has just been retired as my daily driver, and now desperately needs one of these bumpers.

Hi Ray.

Still having a blast driving a 4.3L powered Mitsu.
Re the bumpers, I've lost access to the welding shop, so can't make 'em anymore.
Getting too busy on other essentials of life, but did notice a sudden uptick in my website traffic this afternoon re welding webpages...

Take care all.
Don

(PS, there are no "plans" to these welded items. I made jigs for every step, and those are quite large, and would probably make no sense to anyone else... Take the pics to a custom welder, they can probably figure it out.)
