...very much for posting this! I will definitely be at this years Fest West and would sooner miss my wedding...I cried when I missed the last one (my first since moving to CA from NY) on account of my car being "down" after I sheered a trailing arm off the subframe powering out of a hairpin on Twin Peaks...

Love ya'll

Matt, I am shamefully clueless on how to post pictures on the board and would welcome anyone's advice on how to do so! Some day, I'm hoping to do a site for the car. In the meantime, I will e-mail you a couple of pics that I have and feel free to post them yourself. As far as specs, here is what I have done to date (sorry if it's too comprehensive!) and what I still plan to do:

Here's what I still plan to do as I can afford it:

-Custom Fully welded in cage tying all 4 strut towers together yet maintaining sunroof and rear seat

-Custom Aluminum Radiator

-Carbon Fiber hood, trunk lid, front fenders

-CR Steering Box

-6 Series Rear Seat finished in Recaro Tan Monza Cloth and customized to fit around roll cage

-Dash reupholstered once it is cut to clear roll cage

Well, thanks for your patience in reading this. Unless I'm spacing on something, I think that pretty much sums up the lunacy that has consumed me for the last ten years and, no doubt, will continue to do so until I am taken to either the asylum or the poorhouse...

IMG posting tutorial:

1. first we need to upload img to a web server. You may have some web space with your ISP or you may use a picture service like photopoint or yahoo pictures. I personally use fototime as I believe it offers a very flexible platform and makes posting pictures a no brainer. The only drawback is that it cost around $25 yr, but for that price you get 250MB of space.

Most of the picture sites offer an easy way to upload. Ussually you follow a picture upload link, it then offers you a browse button. When you click on this one a box will appear. It offers you a way to look for the picture file in your computer. Once you find it click open, the file should now appear on the box next to the browse button. Now you just upload or submit.

Once you have your img on a web server you are ready to post.

2. the easy way to post to the board is to use the optional img url box to enter your pictures url. **The url is basically your pictures address and this is what is use to post the picture to the board. In essense you will just be placing a reference of where the picture lives. THe best way to get your pictures url is to bring it up on your browser (of course using the online web server and not your own Hard drive) and then right click on it. After rt clicking click on properties, a info box will appear. In it you will see a line for address (URL). Copy this url and place it in the optional img box and submit your post.

to post without using the box or to post multiple images you will have to write some simple html code. for a single img use the following:

EX:

By using the above code you should get something like the following

I obtained the url by rt clicking on the img.

for multiple images you just do it over like the next example:

by using the above you would get somthing like the following:

you should be able to just copy any of the above examples or the following:

and replace the URL with your own to post your pictures.

I hope this helps
