Welcome to the forum.
Not sure why your picture links go to the main page..
Bad aim?
I use imageshack so I don't know how to help you with photobucket.
I don't think Mark has figured out how to help you either.

Have a look at the pics. When they appear, copy the line up in the URL address bar (where it says "http://www.something.com/etc") Then paste it into a new message here. That way we can go right to your photos.

My son always ribs me that I can't fix anything with out a hammer. Looks your in the same boat. You can laugh at the people that get carpel syndrome from beating on wrenches with the palms of their hands. I hope that's an A&W coffee hand warmer on the bumper.

I love the color on the '81. My buddy has a green one.
Which one were you doing the fuel and brake lines on? I helped you with this on the vortex,... and didn't even get my hands dirty :) .
Working in the snow,... not too bad if it isn't sloppy.

You can post pics using the img button and the same address and they will show up like this (so's us with lazy fingers dont have to click the link).... You could even edit your first post to make the pics there so other lazy guys wouldn't have to scroll down to see the pics. :D Ps. I really like that green one!

Sizing them first is a good idea so people don't have to scroll to read the rest of the thread.
I like imageshack because I can use thumbnails, which don't widen the screen and load quickly. If someone wants to see the big picture that can click on it.
