Riverside Red '63 split window
 |
| My personal '63 SWC at Tom Ames' shop in Texas |
 |
| We lifted the body off the chassis |
 |
| Yes, it is a "Fuelie"...but no, the F.I. unit isn't on it right now. It's being rebuilt by John DeGregory currently. |

SoCal NCRS judging event - L.A. roadtrip...
 |
| Fill-up in King City |
 |
| San Luis Obispo lunch stop |
 |
| Window came off the track in SLO town... |
 |
| Found an auto parts store that sold the window removal tool! |
 |
| Back on the road along the coast... |
 |
| Stopped in Westlake Village to visit Tom & Kathryn - original owners of the '64 (aka "run run") |
 |
| First morning @ the hotel in L.A. - on route 66 |
 |
| Cars rolling into place for NCRS judging (and Riley in 'da house) |
 |
| A beautiful '67 - that received Top Flight. |
 |
| And a sweet '63 Fuelie. Jerry judged "Interior" and I judged "Chassis" |
 |
| Leaving L.A. - we had a shock come loose. A "minor" delay! |
 |
| Late night driving back to San Jose |
 |
| We stopped @ Harris Ranch for a couple steaks...at 10:45pm! |

New shocks & new pinion seal...
 |
| The '64 and the '62 K10 4x4 |
 |
| New shocks front and rear |
 |
| Pinion nut - marked and ready for removal |
 |
| Even with 90 psi...the pinion nut wouldn't come off. Arghhh |
 |
| The old pinion seal |
 |
| Don't ask. Had to finally take it into a rear-end shop. 200+ psi air gun, got the pinion nut off and the new pinion seal installed! NO MORE LEAK!! |
