Rich Mason had just completed the reassembly of his Ruby Red 1964<br />
Coupe. With a fresh engine build he decided to take it on a shake-down<br />
cruise to the Loveland Pass, up 12,000 feet (above). <strong>The</strong> engine ran<br />
strongly and he got great gas mileage as well (37mpg). But when he<br />
attempted the Pikes Peak hill climb to the 14,000 feet peak his engine<br />
broke a push rod at the 12,000 foot elevation and he was unable to<br />
continue. It’s all fixed now and the <strong>T34</strong> is back in strong running shape.
