Hey Matt,
Very nice job on the uploding pictures procedure. I am sure that including myself there will be a lot of thankful people for what you just created. I have not posted any pics because I was not sure how and I did not wanto bother the members with the question, I am sure that this subject is brought up quite often. Anyhow thanks for taking the time to educate everyone on this subject.
Sincere Regards

No problem. Can you believe I actually got crap from people about writing that? Calling me a suck up, and saying I'm pandering to the uneducated people that shouldn't be posting if they don't know how? How's that for some crap? Anyway, I'm just glad I could help out, since I too was there, and yes, it does come up often. I'm working on one for C3 custom stereo systems.

'77's are great!!! Welcome to the forum!!!
With it sitting for 11 years there are lots of things to inspect beyond the brakes. You will find tons of answers using the search function, or just post up and someone will chime in and help you out!!!
Good Luck!!!

Seriously...you did I nice job on the image posting info. Screw the idiots who bash you for helping. Some people just like to cause $h*t.
I use photobucket and I am one of those who just starts messing with the computer until I figure it out types...but not all of us "figure it out". tools like that are nice.
I'm excited to see the Stereo one your doing. I've had a busy week so I still have not ordered up the speakers for the kicks,but the rest of the interior and deck are all back in. Still deciding what to go with for the speakers...
Thanks again!
