Yes,it is a Chev.I imported it about a year ago.Its a 1963 long wheelbase model.Runs a 350,turbo400, original Chevy diff.It has been a bit of a journey getting it roadworthy,suffice to say AMERICANS SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO WORK ON MOTOR CARS.More on that later when I get the pix up.

if u use photobucket to resize you still have yo upload them at your huge size.

heres a trick i use.

In windows explorer, right click on the photo ( usually a jpeg or bmp ) and scroll down to open with and select paint.
Paint will open it in its real size, if its a big arse photo youll only see the top left hand corner of the pick.

so in paint select , image, strech/skew. then in the strech box enter the same amount for vertical and horizontal. I usually enter 40 for both and hit ok.

If your pic now is a bit larger than your screen you can save it and it will be hundreads of times smaller than before ( in hard drive size )

so go file , save as, give it a name in the file name section and in the drop down below select jpeg and hit save.

Now upload to the web and it will be heaps quicker.
