I use to talk to 63Vette pretty much every day. He's my friend. I've been wondering the same thing. He was going through some personal issues and said he needed a break from the boards for a bit. I respected his need for space and haven't heard much from him lately. I hope all is well with him.
Man, I was just copying one of his posts from one thread to another yesterday. Very knowledgeable and helped me and many others here I know! I hope he's doing well and comes back soon.....
