No, I am using Kodak Gallery. Does this only work with fotobucket? Also I've mistakenly created a duplicate thread - where's the delete?

How do you add more stuff to your existing thread and I still want to delete the duplicate thread.

First job: Nice noisy low mount exhaust fitted.









I decided to keep the original pans beacause the n/s only needed a couple of little patches and the battery tray needed replacing of course.



Eventually both pans will be replaced when quality ones are cheap enough.







By July '03 the tax mot was about to run out so a last trip in her to BVF hunting parts before being pushed into the garage.... to tackle the rust under the back seat. I used 1.2mm steel for my patches wherever I haven't used an off the shelf panel. Harder to cut and shape but it'll last longer!



April 2004. Sorry its blurred but thats the n/s rear inner wing after cutting out the rust....



... and letting in the new panel.
