painted up

Let's see if this here works:

OK, maybe from another direction:

All painted up & ready for assembly. That POR-15 engine color turned out to be a shade of blue used on early 50's two-tone Chevys - I think they called it "Polynesian" or something.

DOH!
That URL works every where but here. What am I doing wrong?

OK, the second one works.
So, now I just have to save up a few more paychecks to finish paying the machinist for his work

Randy,

Neither link works for me. The second one says "The File You Are Looking For Is Inaccessible". That one might be password protected.

The first probably doesn't work because alot of sites don't allow off site linking (hot linking) of pics. They do that because it uses up extra bandwidth for them everytime someone clicks on it.

If the pic is within our limits, you can try attaching it to your post. See this thread for the how to:

Go to the site where the picture is and right click the picture,,,
Then click properties,,,,,then highlite the address,,should start with "http",,,,,then right click the highlite and click copy.
Exit and go to your post and click on "IMG" and paste the link there.
The picture will show when you submit reply. Do not preview reply or you will lose the link,,,
Good luck,,,dq

Give it a try in the "test" area,,,,

That depends on what's available. Ideally, I would like to put it in a Model A coupe, a T coupe, a similar vintage Chevy coupe, or just about anything that looks good without the hood sides.

My wet dream would be a 1937 Talbot Lago SS...but.....

I'll settle for a T bucket - but I would weld a full roll cage, like a sprint car. I've been in rollovers and endovers before, so I'd prefer a roof.

It's not going back in the El Camino - I like the idea of being able to drive the 59 anywhere without having to face a parts counter guy in a small town who says "Duh....we ain't got no fan belts for a 1959 348."

I intend to use the Ironglide with it. ....Just because....

That's why you write down part numbers and the required belt length on a notepad, then toss 'em in the glovebox. :)
