Default Just Finished

After one year and three months, I just finished the paint on the 68 and put it together. I'm not real great with the computer so i'm trying to figure out how to take the pictures out of my photo bucket and put them into a thread. If someone would like to post them for me, send me an email address and I will attach. Thanks

I'll post them for you, but if you left click the IMG box under your picture it automatically copies it then come back here, right click and paste and your done.

I'll PM you my e-mail

Did all of the work myself except rebuilding the trailing arms. I farmed those out to Bair's Corvettes in Linesville Pa.
