Default I hope this helps...

I use PhotoBucket
www.photobucket.com It's free!!

You can upload pictures there and then link to them in your posts.
On PhotoBucket copy the IMG link and paste it into your post here.

It will look like this but show a picture instead:
[IMG]www.photobucket.com/name/picturename.jpg[/IMG]

Here is one that works:

Very nice. That brings back memories of when mine was new. I'll do that someday, when I'm thru with all of the mechanical mods, and there is no way I need to sit in the car while working on it. I may even stop drinking coffee in it if it looks as good as yours.

Nice work the finished product looks as good as any pro could do.
What was the original color/ I see a few chips on your steering column so I am guessing that you pained over the original color.

Looks real good but a few extra details even if the were brief, as to what you actually did and how along with your photos would put it over the top, especially for those of us following behind in your footsteps and dreaming of a successful conclusion such as yours.



Peace out

To be honest this is the original color I just have not painted the column yet waiting for a match in the paint department. the nice thing about havng to do only the column is that it will not take much to do it.

Completely stripped the whole interior and put down reflectix as well, repaired all the wiring and made sure everything works

Also sripped the seat bottoms and backs and repainted them and did the recovering of the cusions with a little extra padding LOL

I don't know why you had to change from cardomain to photobucket though, I've never had any problems posting pics from Cardomain.
