To post photos - open a Photobucket account for yourself - it's free! Then upload your photos to that site - then to post on here you simply click on the 'IMG' version of the photo in Photobucket - and then click again in the thread where you want the photo to appear. It's easy - even I can do it!

Welcome to the site simon. Looks like you have a lot less to do on your car than i have. I got mine when i was 16 with the hope of getting it on the road this summer......no such luck despite a lot of work!
If your interested, have a look at my photobucket album as i had to weld on new spring hangers on my car.

With a bit of luck it will be on the road in time for the national next year.

all the best,
YG

Looks pretty tidy Simon, I always wanted a 4-door but never got one! Good luck with it.
