Smile Newbie from PA.

Hello to all from PA. This looks like a great friendly site. I have owned a 1969 442 W30 # matching since 1992. I Bought the car in 1992 as a basket case for a project with my wife and for my wife, As I already had other cars of my own. We had a blast with this car making it a great looking fun driver/show car. When things where more affordable!! LOL The only thing not original is the paint job, the wheels, and the auto. trans. with console. (STILL HAVE ORIGINAL 4 SPEED) IMO is to make the car what we what to enjoy what we built.. thanks

I just tried to upload pics for the first time as well and received the same error message. Are we doing something incorrectly?

Make sure the size of the file is within the specified limits. This is the most common reason people can't get pics on. Welcome to CO.

Go to imageshack.us and upload a photo. When it's done, copy and paste the code it gives for a forum, then paste it in your next post in the field just like where I'm typing now.

I'm originally just down the road from you in Wilmington - GO FLYERS!
