Road trip to pick up my car

It's been a while since I've been looking for a Pantera. I found exactly what I wanted in Texas- a project car with work already done. The chassis, brakes, suspension, and steering rack were rebuilt. A rebuilt Cleveland and many other parts came with the car, including many from a parted-out '74.

Call me a nut, but I like the process of building a car. I could buy any one of the many for sale, but it's just not the same for me.

I started in Salt Lake City, Utah. I live in the midst of the Wasatch Mountains. Here's a picture of Mt. Timpanogos in Provo as I was starting my journey:



Along the way, I had to climb to 7500 ft at Soldier's Summit. Notice the snow, but the blue sky that was pretty much the hallmark of my trip:



Scenery just southeast of Price, Utah is not as beautiful as the Wasatch Mountains:



Moab, on the other hand, is stunning. As I was approaching Moab, I took this picture. Arches National Park is the red part of this blurry photo of the sun setting on the sandstone rock fins:
