Title: Effie, my FC wagon
Post by: amys on May 18, 2010, 05:30:58 PM
Hi All,
Well, I now have an FC of my very own and I can't wait to get her on the road, she'll be my daily driver. As far as hubby thinks, we're just going to need a new set of seatbelts (Autobarn has quoted $500 for a full set of 5), the heater core to be fixed (hubby's on to it), new carpet and hopefully not too much else for a roadworthy.
As for what I'd like to do, I would like to find a bench seat for the front (currently has VL commodore seats), change the trasmission to a column shift auto, re-trim the seats and cargo space and then eventually polish up or re-chrome all the pretty shiny bits.

I am in love with my new baby!

I also thought I'd share a couple of pics with everyone but I can't seem to get it to work. I click on the image button above the smileys but all I get is this (http://) what am I doing wrong?

Amy

You're doing nothing wrong you just need to fill the blank so to speak, your pics should be on photbucket(or the like) and you need the URL (web address) and you put that inbetween the ] and the [.

Amy

I had the same trouble.

I had to copy the whole URL for each image from Photo Bucket into the message.

Yes it did take a few attempts before I finally got it.

Although the instructions given by RET on Real Members Cars - Linking and Uploading Images onto the Forum, looks a little busy the info advice on uploading is spot on.

Please persist as it would be great to get the photos online.

Cheers

Craig

Close, when you mouse-over the thumbnails in your album, copy either the direct link to put in between the [img] tags or the IMG Code and you don't have to click the image icon when writing.

Nice wagon Amy, although I'm biased as it looks almost identical to mine before I started ;)
