Bob's Cub Restoration and Repair, J3 completion

[Idaho180]

Let's all give Bob Christensen a round of applause, a pat on the back or just a good old fashion atta' boy!
He just finished another cub restoration! And I'm biased of course, but this is one of the finest Cubs around. All original except for the nice little C-85 Stroker under the hood. Weighs 845.5 lbs.
Bob's hanger is the prime spot at the Rexburg Airport (KRXE) if you are ever in town. There is an endless supply of cashews, jokes and sarcasm.
He's even let some salty supercub.org characters crash on the hanger couch.

Seriously, is there anything better than building/restoring/flying and maintaining cool airplanes with great friends? I don't think so!!!!!
