Thanks Hobbawobba. Yes I will post some current pics of it languishing in the garage although I would like to figure out how to post a pic without it 'scrolling' / resize it? Any ideas let me know. it is currently on car ramps with its fuel pump hanging off whilst I try and get it to run again - I will take some more once it is back on its wheels. It doesn't look a lot different just needs a wash and a polish but there are a couple of small areas of rust starting I want to deal with before they get bad. The things on the doors are some old school rubber bump protectors that were on the car when I bought it. I took one off once but the glue etc left a bit of a mess so I stuck it back on! Actually it has saved the edges of the doors from the walls in the garage.

First thing I did with a brand new all-singing, all-dancing Merc 5 or so years ago was go and get some 'U' shaped plastic strip to fit on the doors from the car shop for a couple of quid.

Might be old school but it don't half save the door edges.

Personally I don't mind pic sizing Stu, modern devices can scroll your pics easy. Looking forward to seeing SWC as is though.

Codge.

(playing with file formats to make it look a bit better - these in PDF).

There's an RX7 in there somewhere -the roof box is not fixed and is balanced on a thick pad - I quite like the look though!!

Make an account on http://www.photobucket.com and upload some photos to it. Once you have uploaded a picture, click the "IMG" link on the right side of the page and post it here. Maybe I should make a tutorial with pictures on how to do this? For any others that might not know. :D

You have it set to private so we can't see! :P Once you change your settings. Try clicking on an individual picture and then on the right side of the page there will be a bunch of links. You want to copy the one that says "IMG" g-l :D
