Re: Dutch 1955 build
Your 63 Vette is the pic of the bunch for me, followed by the white 69 RT Charger & the red Peterbuilt. In saying that you Dutchies have heaps of nice American cars over there!
Ps, how do you upload that many pictures on one post? I struggle to load 5 in one hit after I have shrunk them to half their size??

on the photo upload thing i use photobucket.com create an acount and you can directly upload the large picture's from your pc. when thats done you can select the photo's in your album, by moving your cursor over the pic a field pops open and you can select the IMG code of that picture copy and paste it in your post. this way you can add unlimited pic's in 1 post hope this helps |
