I haven't been on here much since June or so. At the beginning of June a friend convinced me (after a month of trying) hike Mt. Whitney on Aug 22nd. Mt. Whitney is quite an undertaking for someone that is out of shape, so until last week, most of my free time was spent training for the hike (pics here).

The car was pretty close to being on the road in June, but I was also feeling burnt out and got to the point where I needed some help troubleshooting things.

Vince (http://www.mayedamotorsports.com/) came by a couple of times over the last 3 weeks or so to give me a hand and to check over my work. Sunday I was able to drive the '63 for the first time in about 16 months. I still need to get the exhaust done and there are still a few small things to take care of. I'm very excited though to have it back on the road:
