We get some really nice hot rods in at work that I'd like to share with everyone here but the problem is I DON'T know how to post pics. Could someone be kind enough to do a write up for me and others that are computer illiterate.:confused:

Since your a contributing member you can just "attach" them to your post. You should see that option below where you are typing your message when you created the post.

Does that help at all?

Wow, thanks for the help. I'll have to try it a couple million times to get it right. Now I just have to figure out how to get the pics into the document section for my Kodak section. Thanks again and prepare to see some really awesome cars in the future.

Wow. Mods should take that single post and make it a sticky somewhere.

Let me know if you need work on the left coast of Washington - we could use a good technical writer like you :amen:

Gonna try this. Turns out the pic I tried to attach is 831 KB too big to transfer. Did I do something wrong ?:confused:

you could try imageshack i find its very easy to use and can resize pictures for you.

http://imageshack.us/

go to that webpage, click the browse button, located and select the picture you want to share. put a checkmark in the box for resize image and select 800x600 then click host.

on the next page that comes up after the image has uploaded, select the code in the second box down "Thumbnail for forums (1)" right click the code/text right click > copy then come back to turbo-mopar and right click > paste the code into the reply box here.

Or you can upload them to your gallery here, I believe that it resizes images for you. Can someone chime in and confirm that?

Post pics on photobucket, then just cut and paste the IMG code. I find this the easiest.

Thanks Racoon, This is Dick Landy's last project car. Now a little bit about the car. It's a 63 Chrysler New York hard top wagon with an 426 max wedge, push bottom trans., A/C, cruise control etc. Was his grocery getter. Car is so heavy we had to use a truck floor jack in the rr to lift it. Present owner has some cable hot rod program + couldn't diag. a vac leak ( PCV hose came off ). We fixed it + installed a set of gauges and tach. Car is still at the shop after 3 or 4 mos. now. Will be posting more pics now that I know how.

Thanks for the update, JT. Frankly, it was nice to see Butch's user name pop up on here as a result. I miss seeing him at SDAC.
